I've received that same email a few times. But it doesn't address the problem! Nobody, NOBODY, is wanting a 16:9 image letterboxed and stretched horizontally. That doesn't make any sense. No excuse for that. I just plain won't watch it.
As for compression. Here in Portland, OR our PBS station has 1 HD channel and then 3 SD substations. Needless to say this makes the HD by far the worst looking OTA station I receive.
