I'd back you 100% as I am sure if another format was introduced for 4K then at this stage as our economy struggles to recover it would gain little or no support whatsoever. I am sure the Blu-ray forum are aware of this as they make the important decisions ahead of them. If at all possible add it to Blu-ray.

I would have to assume that you can fit 4K on some sort of Blu ray disk as Sony said the PS4 will have Blu ray drive and support 4K but only for video and not for games.

“Fitting” 4K on some sort of Blu-ray disc is not a problem. More importantly, is the 'will' to do it, on the part of the BDA.

Been mentioned elsewhere, the 4k thread I think.
