It's more than that, the picture quality would take a hit. Then the videophiles would be up in arms. Why not just adjust the format on your TV?

Out of the hundreds of dvds/blu rays I own I would say less than 2% of them have bonus features that were deciding factors in my purchase and those were normally special sneak peaks at future projects, short films related to the movie, or real deleted scenes/alternate endings. I do love how many blu-rays are now coming with a free digital copy for me to use with my ipod/iphone.

it's pretty money, but what i would love is if they can find a way to put a standard dvd format on the disc w the blu ray, that would be nice. i have the ps3 in the living room on the massive plasma but i just have a nubbs dvd player in the bedroom. since we rarely watch movies in there it's not a big deal, it would just be nice to have it interchangeable w/o having to buy two seperate dvds

More and more companies are doing this, especially Disney, but I think now with companies delving more into their catalog of titles for conversion, you will see more blu-ray/dvd combos.

I doubt you would prefer 4:3 over 16:9. What is important to me and many others is that we watch the movie as it was shot. Feel free to stretch the picture on your TV to get rid of the black bars.
