Gotta get people to replace their tvs somehow so dangle an "upgrade".
One thing, my current 4k TV/monitor does a pretty nice job upscaling 1080p. It, of course, doesn't look as good as native 4k, but it looks considerably better than 1080p not upscaled. So even without native 8k content, there is some value in being able to upscale 4k content to 8k.
Yeah until I can get a 8ki instead of 8kp I'll hold off /s
Fr though both sound similarly ridiculous
I'd buy a 8k TV, provided that it has no smarts, no WiFi, no TV tuner and its price isn't over 5% than a 4k TV
