Why do you even care that there are letterboxes? Why must every pixel be lit just because they exist?

Think of the screen like a wall in your house. You hang a painting on the wall. "Why do they make paintings in all these random sizes instead of filling this wall edge egde? Why? Grrr."

Hmm well you can rationalize these things either way but in the end I find it nicer to have the tv filled edge to edge. I just do.

It doesn't look as pleasant, that's all.
