The distortion annoys me, too. The main reason to have the screen filled 
instead of "pillar boxed" is if you have a CRT screen like mine it will 
cause burn-in, but now that most of what I watch is HD and fills the 
screen anyway, I don't care too much, and have set my TV to display 4:3 
stuff at 4:3 now. At least Sony's stretch didn't distort too horribly. 
It did a mild stretch and pushed the top and bottom of the image into 
overscan.

But it's completely unnecessary for LCD...
