I don't think you understand integrated the industries are.   First, TV manufacturers are not going to release a whole line of 'affordable' 2160p TV's just because gamers want them.

Second, Triple layer Blu-ray discs cannot handle 2160p content without a compression scheme that negates the video quality advantage of Blu-ray. 

Thrid, The movie industry is not going to back another physical movie median just a few years after already upgrading everything for 1080p.  Especially wne content is moving into the digital space.

Wow some of you guys must not know how to read or comprehend what you are reading.

What new medium did I mention other than what's already available on the market (Blu-ray) wow just wow.

You are trying to suggest that I can't read yet you failed to read my own post.  Irony.

I just told you that a triple layered Blu-ray cannot handle 2160p content without a compression scheme that negates the video quality that Blu-ray offers.   Do you want blurry 2160p content?

You can put 1920x1080 content on a DVD but the compression scheme to make that happen means the image quality is very poor compared to Blu-ray at the same resolution.

So in order to maintain the same standard in image quality at 2160p, you'd need a new format that can handle the capacity and bit rate required.  Or maybe you are hoping for a magical compression scheme that can put 2 hours of 2160p content on a triple layer Blu-ray without sacrificing image quality.  Good luck.

Ok so you are telling me that a bluray disc than is 25 gigs can do 1080p.

But a bluray disc than is over 100 gigs cannot do 2160p.

Is that what you are telling me.

 keeping in mind 4x the resolution doesn't necessarily mean 4x the disc space.
