I chose "other" because the aspect ratio will depend on what one is viewing. When I read I prefer a 4:3 aspect ratio. That is also the best mode for the older classic films. When browsing the web, I use landscape mode on my iPad--which isn't really either 4:3 or 16:9 but does allow easier reading of the text. The landscape mode is preferable for modern wide screen films, though a letter box effect is created if one wishes to see the entire screen image. In the end, I don't think the choice is either one or the other. Rather one should have a device which gives the necessary flexibility of viewing oiptions for whatever your main usage will entail.
