Nick, if they took a globe and flattened it out, it also looks distorted.
I would have assumed that in making a curved screen, the stretch algorithms would compensate for this. Otherwise the flattened globe effect would present itself so horribly that no one would want to buy such a tv.

If you think about it, it is actually MORE susceptible to reflections.

Actually, no. You would need multiple light sources at increasingly off angles to the screen to have an increased effect. Most people have one window opposing or to the 90 degree right/left of a tv to which they have a complaint about flat screens.
With a curved screen, a 90 degree left/right situation works a world better.

Here is a link to one article about curved screens:
Curved Screen TVs - What you need to know

I don't assume that everything one reads on the internet is true. About.com is presenting one opinion (with a confidence reducing typo at that), not representing an absolute fact based article and indications of this person's bias against the concept based on recent increased recent marketing.
"So, there you have it, my perspective on the whole curved screen TV push as of the 2104-2015 time frame."

I'm sure there is an equally opposing article out there where someone states a differing opinion.
