A common incorrect assumption (that the whole screen should be filled). I actually didn't know the black bars would be there until I tried one out. I never really thought out the ratios.
This confuses my father in law . . . he doesn't quite get why a widescreen tv won't display widescreen content to fill the screen. He hits the 'zoom' button so the shot fills up the screen and it makes me cringe every time.
