Thanks to all contributors (espc. P-M of course) and readers for pushing HDR interest even in the era of the pandemic.

Jan 31 count of viewers/ readers is 8,323,556.

Increased 313,727 over Dec 31. Nice bump again this month, even though CES was virtual. Not much going on with new 4K players (other than the addition of Tascam which has a dedicated thread.) The news about 2021 displays seems to be taking place in the LED and OLED threads in Display Technologies. I miss them being here in the 4K Hardware thread.

Seriously, you were the guy who informed me your wife was in either the medical, or legal field? If the later, ask her about Opening the Door legal doctrine. Anyway, it’s all connected Wabs. You won’t have much of any new stuff to watch, HDR or otherwise, if the valve on the pipe isn’t opened up. Embrace all aspects of the coverage - https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/ne...n-move-forward

IMO, purty good in maintaining one’s interest as to who killed the DJ. You should like it as he’s from Manchester….you know, home of Manchester City and Manchester United.

P.S. Wabo, the best thing about the host ^ who’s wearing the cap and hoodie?
he’s rocking a Troy Lee Designs Team KTM cap

of course, considering the importance of tomorrow , I guess you can always rewatch the same old stuff again….and again….and again, etc.

The best thing to come out of Manchester is Morrissey. The Smiths are my all time fave group!

Of course, Sunderland has produced its fair share of talent including Steve Cram (world champion runner), Dave Stewart (Eurythmics), Tim Rice (Lyricist), Kate Adie (news reporter, met her!) and of course me!

No Super Bowl in HDR tomorrow, bummer.

Not my cup of tea. It didn't rock anything in my world. It feels antiseptic, kids dialog.

Unlike those it was made in lockdown with a tiny crew.
