4K why?
The other day I was browsing a warehouse sale which had a few 4K TVs (but no 3D, which I found interesting), and it got me to thinking about them. Not because I want one, but strictly on a why? basis.
The local cable company is hyping their 4K TV offering, starting with local baseball and hockey games. But when I'm watching my 55" HDTV, I'm not thinking "boy, I'd pay big bucks to have more picture detail".
Maybe if my TV filled the entire wall so HDTV looked like 320x200 VGA on a 21" monitor. But then I wonder whether compression wouldn't make the extra resolution moot.
