It really is. Its simply companies looking for the next revenue stream since blu-ray has leveled off and prices are low enough that profit margins are razor thin. I get the whole thing - 3D was the same thing...an attempt to resell you a film. Again.

With reasonably decent gear and good blu-ray transfers, you aint getting much better video/audio quality for home. Just isnt happening. Maybe someone with a 50 foot screen that they sit 3 feet away from might benefit.

For me, blu-ray is the pinnacle of home video and Im not buying gear and movies yet again. Im done. They can try to pimp it any way they like. The phrase "diminishing returns" comes into play here.

4K = YAWN
