How well do these folks think the human eye can see? How much detail do viewers really want? As a one-eyed guy, I’m grateful the rest of you rejected 3D media. As a guy with average vision in my one good eye, can we all stand together by rejecting the expense of a level of image quality which benefits nobody?
I swear, inside the offices of network executives, some toady getting his ass handed to him over declining ratings panicked and, instead of arguing that the lack of quality in the content of the programming is leading to the decline, blurted out that viewers were tuning out because the picture wasn’t clear enough, and the executives were stupid enough to believe him. To believe 8k is wanted or needed, you have to ignore all the data which shows the ever increasing amount of people of all ages who watch media on their phones. Law and Order in 8k is still going to be as bland and formulaic as it was when it was in standard definition in a 4:3 ratio.
