Is there demand for 4K content though? My guess is that people are buying 4K TVs because why not? I'm looking at Harvey Norman's website and Samsung only have 1080p TV on sale - the rest are 4K ones. The only 4K content that I foresee growing is games.

That would be a bit silly to spend hard earned money on a 4k TV because why not? They could easily spend that money on something else if they don't care for 4k content. And those who are spending money on a 4k TV surely would want to see 4k Content to see what the upgrade can deliver.

And there are plenty of 4k content that is growing. There are quite a few channels on Youtube that have 4k viewing options, Virtually All Netflix Originals are in 4k and tons of movies that are currently avaliable and are coming out also are coming in 4k. You surely can't expect Content to outpace the devices that are able to play them in terms of growth right? We need the devices to sell and then the content will come for them.

You are forgetting that 2160p streaming is NOT better than 1080p bluray.
