Not taken that way . Not in the least . And I hope you don’t perceive my responses as causing issues either. That was not the intent at all.

On the contrary, I’ve enjoyed engaging in the conversation because there is very little posted about objective/subjective analysis and the back-and-forth discussion between you and I, has, I feel, contributed to that knowledge base.

But anyway, moving on, especially for those, unlike you , who are afraid or dismissive of 4K…..RELAX, for something which also goes unrecognized and thusly unmentioned by bloggers, is that HEVC (given its inherent bandwidth savings) has the potential to enable 1080p60 broadcasting someday, which would be a boon to HD fast-action sports.

What I mean is that, with HEVC, 1080p60 is comparable to today’s 1080i data rates. And for those content providers who have expressed an initial reservation to 4K, that (doable-to-the-consumer 1080p60) would seem to be of some interest, especially given the fact that “the network is ready for whatever comes next”…

So, HEVC 4K benefits aside, HEVC can also be thought of as the potential key to unlock the bandwidth bottleneck to the nirvana of HD fast-action sports, namely 1080p60 acquisition and delivery.
