What movies will you get in 4K?

[BozQ]

I am not super pumped for 4K.

First of all, it must be in a physical medium. No streaming, no downloading nonsense. I don't mind requiring new hardware to play a new discussion format (eg. Triple layer BD or BDXL), it just has to be physical.

Secondly, I must make sure it's authored with a 4K or higher resolution master. I will not accept any lower.

One exception, unless there's an upgrade in audio. Not so much for higher resolution or sampling rate, but something that embraces the new cinema formats. Eg. Dolby Atmos or Auro 11.1

That being said, I don't see myself getting much 4K movies in the near future.

Many movies are distributed in 2K in digital cinemas.

It will be a while for me before I go 4k. I have a 50inch tv, so 4k is pretty pointless. I don't know if I'll ever own a huge 85inch tv.

In regards to that ‘e.g.’, since NATO (see http://natoonline.org/) does not support the adoption of any proprietary sound formats, immersive sound is currently a contentious issue with D-Cinema stakeholders.

In essence, Dolby doesn’t want an open standard, whereas Barco and DTS do…. http://www.barco.com/en/News/Press-r...rsive-obj.aspx
