Big TVs are so cheap now, who cares if there's "black bars" on the bottom and top, or on the sides?
If you were trying to watch Ben-Hur on an old 19-inch CRT, then yeah, that's more of a problem. But TVs have gotten a lot better since then!
TVs are so good and so cheap now, it's amazing to me that anyone would complain about them.
(Also, I've never understood why people use the phrase "black bars". It's just negative space where there's no image. They're not bars. They're nothing.)
