Exclamation 4K(2160P) Blu-ray movies

I have noticed that there are webpages here on Blu-ray.com for upcoming BD releases of some movies, that will have the 4K resolution which is 2160P > https://www.blu-ray.com/search/?quic...leasetimestamp. I noticed on amazon.com that there are webpages for these upcoming BD releases with 4K(2160P), that are already listed on there now as well. Also, i found this bit of information on amazon.com on all the webpages for the upcoming 4K(2160P) movies on BD > http://www.amazon.com/s?url=search-a...qid=1366504323 .....

The Blu-ray “Mastered in 4K” collection will set a new standard for Blu-ray HD picture and sound, creating the ultimate 1080p home entertainment experience. Created from the highest quality 4K source materials with new expanded color*, consumers can enjoy a brilliant picture with exquisite detail using their existing Blu-ray player or PlayStation®3. The Blu-ray “Mastered in 4K” collection is optimized so that 4K Ultra HD TV owners can take full advantage of the new 4K upscaling technology, delivering an outstanding near-4K experience. “Mastered in 4K” Blu-rays also work with all 1080p HDTVs for spectacular high definition picture and sound.

*Expanded color requires xvYCC-compatible TV and Blu-ray player

Why “Mastered in 4K” Blu-ray?
• Get the best Blu-ray picture possible, mastered from 4K source materials
Push your TV to the limit with a high bitrate digital transfer for an immersive visual experience
• Ideal solution for new 4K TV owners and great for Blu-ray collectors
So from what it sounds like it says that i have highlighted above, people will be able to use their current hdtv's and blu-ray players. Which is a good thing for people that might of recently bought 1080P hdtvs and 1080P blu-ray players. Oh, and i almost forgot to mention this, that those BD releases i posted a link to on amazon.com and from here on blu-ray.com, have a May 14th 2013 BD release date. Maybe that is going to be when hdtv's and blu-ray players with the next hdtv resolution number after 1080P will be released, meaning 2160P .
