    Reason #122 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because it’s great! It gives me all the information I need on HDTV home theatre, equipment, and DVD/D-VHS reviews. Other magazines don't even come close to the amount of information you give me! Also, you give me DVD evaluations, to tell me which DVD is right for my home theatre! Thank you, Widescreen Review for giving me the pleasure of reading your magazine! Thank you for helping me build my great home theatre! I LOVE IT
