both can be flagged either 4:3 or 16:9 and it's gonna be the player that will re-scale them on the fly.

I mean 576, sorry. Typo that got copied pasted all over. My point stays the same. DVD-Video forces you to use full D1 resolution if you want anamorphic 16:9, which, together with the fact MPEG-2 degrades much worse than MPEG4 ASP, means you are looking at a 4GB file minimum, which is more than what people are willing to download for SD.

Yeah, but nothing you or me can do about it, right? Also, things like car DVD players can't be easily upgraded.
