Really? I haven't once tried talking you into a 4K set, you are all set right now, I get that.
*IF* you were buying a TV right now and *didn't* get a 4K set I'd tell you you were a complete jackass
This is pretty random for you. I didn't say you, or anyone was trying to convince me of it.
I didn't really think my comment through though.
People buying tvs now would be buying 4K tvs because that just makes sense, you wouldn't want to be left behind if they do take off and become the standard.
I say "if" because I remember the DLP, Plasma, projection, 3d, and 720p "revolutions" pretty well and with 4K market penetration only at 10% years after a few years, I'm not convinced what 4K is now is what 4k will end up being.

With a projected one third market share three years from now guaranteeing slow ramp up of content, I'm kind of surprised they're selling TVs at all.
