One problem that I can see of ordering these older movies from Amazon.com, especially the cheaper priced ones without any description, is you don't know what aspect ratio you're getting. 4:3 9:6, etc. I would imagine that a lot of the older ones are the 4:3 variety on DVD. Definitely 4:3 on VHS. I think 9:6 is the same as what's called anamorphic.
