    Anecdotally at average viewing distances on my 55" TV I can’t really tell a difference. If I had an enormous TV maybe I would be able to tell. 1080 > 2160 is for sure not the leap 720 > 1080, or 480 > 720 was in the average environment that’s for sure.

      People watch crap quality streaming and old reruns while somehow thinking they need more Ks. Its sad and a bit funny.
