Anyone know of it? Or where you can see a copy? I'd like to know if my sites are on the list (reported by competitors), whether its a technical fault.... or whether I should go after Microsofts balls for screwing with my income.

SUCKERS! So much for all their security features! I've been advised that one of my sites got tagged for phishing, and it made a train wreck out of other sites that worked perfectly in Firefox, Opera, IE5 I’ve only got one word for anyone that is going to have Internet Explorer 7 as their default browser…..

Remember that movies have been wide screen for decades. The format was already set. The TV folks are taking advantage of the home theatre craze This change will surprises people how fast it takes over. Remember that movies have been wide screen for decades.

Digital can carry much more information, and unfortunately the general feeling is that people like wide screen movies and programs. With HD they actually defined it as widescreen when they were working on the technology, so as a default all HD TV will be broadcast in widescreen format. This means that the vast majority of TVs that will be made and sold (certainly here in the UK) will be widescreen within the next year or two. Sky is starting to broadcast on of its services in HDTV format mid next year, which means that cable and terrestrial broadcasters will have to catch up fairly quickly or loose out more custom again. When Sky started to broadcast digital satelite entertainment the cable industry were about 6 months behind on the technology, and they lost a lot of custom because the \'keep up with the Jones\'s\' attitude kicked in. This has driven the program makers to record in wide screen ahead of the changes, mainly because, whilst it is not too hard to change to broadcasting in widescreen (even on an analogue signal), it is a fairly major change to record in widescreen and so they are moving that way earlier before it becomes the defacto standard.
