That's pure comedy right there.

I’m not lecturing, I simply stated my observation of less to no film grain in specific shots compared to the UK 4K. I’ve even said I’m curious to hear from others once they get the disc. I’d even like to see screen shot comparisons.

I’ve come close to buying several 4K tv options in the last few years but there is always something that lacks for the display. The latest Sony flagship model gets high marks but many have had different issues, including a slight pink or green tint on dark/black images. So I’m cautious of throwing $5,000 to that model that according to many on AVR forums is causing lots of headaches for buyers.

I love my plasma flagship master panel. I have friends with 4K tvs and I cringe at the quality, some look downright horrendous. It’s what keeps me thinking better models will come along.

As for owning close to 700 4K discs, you’re welcome. I hope I’ve helped sales of the format.

When I started buying I was future proofing… but once I knew I could watch them downrezzed SDR I thought cool why not, I get better compression even if it’s HD only. And of course many release were throwing Atmos mixes on the 4K discs only and I’d already spent an insane amount for my atmos setup and in ceiling speakers.
