And now tell me that you believe that the average customer cares.

Why would manufacturers invest in a resolution with no percievable gain? And why would consumers purchase TVs with a resolution that leads to no percievable gains? I think they will invest in ultra HDR (if it's a significant improvement) and better image quality. There's a reason we never had HD audio CDs, humans couldn't tell the difference between them and regular CD quality.

People constantly buy things they don't need. Even educated consumers buy useless shit because it has bigger numbers at the end. That's how consumerism works. And as long as there are enough idiots buying it, manufacturers will produce it.

There are too many examples to count but remember when cameras in phones had ever more Megapixels? Absolutely useless but the higher the count, the more consumers bought it. The same with RAM in prebuilt PCs or GPUs.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
