The automatic HDR on my TV was a revolution because it changed the picture. 4K changes nothing. It's not like we went from black-and-white to color TV, it's like "here are way more pixels but most people don't care because they talk and drink during the movie." Movie nerds may care and it's fine, but I can't justify buying a new TV for that. permalink fedilink source parent
