Many SD channels are now also widescreen. They only tend to revert to 4:3 ratio when showing older content.

16:9 is the go to default for most programming now as all modern TVs are wodescreen too. Even some SD CRT tvs were widescreen towards the end of their lives..

There are some new shows that prefer the full widescreen ratio adopted by many movies of 2:35:1 this format is so wide you still get black clack at the top and bottom on a standard 16:9 TV.
