No one cares past 1080p

Post #370,472 by crazy 1/28/13 9:42:52 AM Reply	No one cares past 1080p Or at least not enough people. The manus are holding off any volume predictions because they don't see anything driving the sales. Blueray pushed HD, and past 1080p most people simply can't tell the difference, and certainly aren't willing to pay a multiple of base cost for what they can tell. The football is being tracked close enough right now, and those pores on the actress that used to be pretty has redefined beauty, yet again, and not in any good way. We need a new tech to feed them before they take off, and that won't be for a few years. Until then, no point.

Right behind... pimples and others "blemishes" on the actress. -- greg@gregfolkert.net PGP key 1024D/B524687C 2003-08-05 Fingerprint: E1D3 E3D7 5850 957E FED0 2B3A ED66 6971 B524 687C

Pushing the number of pixels up is a good thing, even if we can't think of an application right now. E.g. It would be nice to be able to see 4 PIP displays on our 42" set. But even if the cable box let you do that, the pixel resolution at 1080p is too small to read text that way. E.g. a screen for the weather, a screen for Google News, a fish tank screen and a screen for a news conference or speech or something. Bloomberg clients would love something like that... Yeah, we won't see 50" 4K screens for under $1k in the home any time soon. But I think it's coming. There's more to life than movies. ;-) Cheers, Scott.

Have 4 times the pixels to have 4 things going at once... now it the TV can keep up (if its the processor to combine the sources) this would be a good thing. I can imagine: Weather, Video Games, a TV show from DVR and maybe a browser But its a long ways off... being affordable. -- greg@gregfolkert.net PGP key 1024D/B524687C 2003-08-05 Fingerprint: E1D3 E3D7 5850 957E FED0 2B3A ED66 6971 B524 687C
