Japan to broadcast 4K UHDTV in 2014, 8K as early as 2016

I agree with you totally. I used to love watching stuff on the net as cable tv remotes along with cable period needed "a how to hit buttons for dummies book". But now on the net, they are putting in commercials, laggy applications that slow down how you can navigate a website and if I am paying for internet service, phone service, cable service and the whole all in one package then why should I pay or sign up for extra stuff like hulu plus, xfinity on demand.. and I am so sick of inputting passwords for every lil thing under the sun. Seriously it's enough to make ya go bonkers. I don't need High Def.. and has anyone else noticed how high def makes awesome movies look like B movies?

The only thing I really enjoy in high def is hubble pictures. the rest I could care less on.. just want ease of use with no hassles. However on the flip side, as I do see both sides of things at times.. high def makes my games look awesome on a TV .. its sure come a long way from the old Atari

1080p doesn't do this. It's called 'hyper-realism' effect and is caused by 100Hz TVs or post-processing performed on the TV. Turn this off and you'll get that nice familiar blurry layer over the content again.

UHD coming to a TV near you, just not soon
