Yup, I remember when they first came out, having a plasma flat screen was like for big money athletes/movie stars/rap stars, lol, not the average joe. It was a high end luxury item.
4KTV is not, you can get a 50-inch 4K set for under $1000 already easy. It might not be the best quality one, but it's 4K.
There should be zero surprise that 4K adoption is faster than HDTV adoption. HD was very expensive at first, lots of average sets cost $8000-$10,000 as people here can attest to.
I remember asking my buddy who worked at an electronics store about HDTV around 2003, and he said it was amazing, like looking through a window, lol. It was like this mystical, unattainable technology at first.
