[QUOTE="pbb, post: 185635, member: 26308"] I must say I haven't collected the data about TV-server versions, even though that info is on the same page as all the other data. Your suggestion is an interesting statistic if I ever do a follow-up research. I will keep it in mind! Do I understand right that you would like to see the amount of people that (can) see widescreen SDTV (low-res) versus widescreen HDTV? The numbers actually turned out more intersting than I thought. Here are the widescreen users, split up by display type: [LIST] [*]LCD: 58% [*]CRT: 14% [*]Plasma: 13% [*]Projector: 9% [*]Rear projection: 6% [/LIST] If you compare these numbers with the overall numbers, you see that the number of CRT users is a lot lower, but the number of LCD users is about the same. (The other numbers are too low to say much.) This means that the 4:3 / widescreen ratio for LCD's is about the same as overall, but for CRT's the ratio is very high. The explaination is probably that LCD includes the people using MP on a 4:3 LCD computer monitor, while the lion's share of CRT users uses a 4:3 display. Now, if I [I]assume[/I] that CRT and rear-projection are SDTV, and LCD, plasma and projector are HDTV, you get the following numbers: [LIST] [*]WS SDTV: 20% [*]WS HDTV: 80% [/LIST] Info on remotes I have!
