Well...loooking at it from another angle, if 2D looks "real" to you...your brain's in a world of hurt.

This 1080p to 4k comes down to diminishing returns. Is that increase in technology really worth the change? In this case, it's not. At least not for most people and the way they watch movies. Most people will not watch movies on TV's over 60". The electronic companies can always find new ways to "improve" technology. At what point are those improvements not worth the hassel of changing everything to play it? I think we are at that point. 1080p is good enough for almost everybody. Maybe in 20 years if something really revolutionary comes out that changes the way to watch TV, it will be worth changing things. I don't see the need to increase the number of pixels on my television screen that I won't even notice.
You use the term "most people" like you know before hand what most people would do when it comes to purchasing CE gear. Fact is ....you don't. But, don't feel hurt. No one else does either. Best these manufacturers can do is hope the product they're selling appeals to more than a few folks so they can make some money.

Been that way since the dawn of Home Theater.
