Why wouldn't they be? Aren't all DVDs 16:9?

Edit: Except programmes that were made before 16:9 became the standard of course, like early episodes of The X-Files, but I'd want them in their original format because I don't know about you but I prefer to see the whole picture rather than have chunks cut off just so it can fill my screen with no black bars.

There are plenty of 1.33:1 aspect ratio DVDs out there.

Anyway, X-Files is as well. Aspect Ratio: 1.33:1

Here is a list of 11,395 4:3 DVDs. Pick a letter. Then there are a fair amount of 1.85:1 as well.

1.78:1 (16:9) is actually one of the lesser popular aspect ratios for DVD releases.
