What is Difference between direct view storage and flat panel display?

"Flat panel" screens refer to any screen that does not have a cathode ray tube, the large glass tube that takes so much depth inside a conventional television. Flat panel screens include plasma, LCD and LED and are normally about 5 inches deep. Wide screen describes the shape of the screen. Conventional screens are a ratio of 4 wide to 3 high. Widescreen normally refers to a ratio of 16 wide by 9 high although there are other ratios that can be described as widescreen as well. Flat panel screens and CRTs come in 4 : 3 and 16 : 9 formats.

So that is why most screens were square and therefore most TV cabinets were also square. MORE INFO TV screens show film and camera images which are rectangular in shape. To make the TV any other shape would either waste screen area or have to delete some of the original image.
