I think this is good news for those that have bought an 8K TV, but as other have said, it is not much news for the majority. I am glad to hear 8k streaming is beginning to be addressed, so that once they become the de-facto rez tvs people really will have something to watch, more than just a handful of You tube clips and demo clips.
As for whether 8K should be in the wild is another matter. I am of the opinion that this FOMO affecting the manufacturers is pushing the video/broadcast industry way too hard. The need to be the world' first is just so painfully childish to me.
I get that there are plenty of people living in areas around the world, with sufficient bandwidth, enough disposable income and also want the very latest "thing", so the manufacturers can justify financially doing it, but it is Hollywood and the TV companies that struggle with the cost of recording at that resolution and the distribution.
I just get annoyed that tech in the AV world is not allowed to mature and that my TV, for example, 2 years old, is not going to receive any further updates and will be outdated in 3 years time, long before it's useful life is up.
I mean I bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 tablet, earlier this year and I am not even sure that will get upgraded to the latest Android version.
Anyway, things will roll on regardless of opinion and is best accepted, we can all choose to stick with what we have until it's really obsolete, and I am pretty sure we will all enjoy the 4K that is available and to come all the same.
