The closest viewing position in my living room is 11' from the tv. The chair I sit in directly in front of the tv is 15' from it. The closest you could sit to a tv in my home is still over 9' in my basement rec room. (and that one's is my son's 60" that gets used for 99% console gaming, I've never watched a tv show on it)
So you want me to buy a another 60" tv for my living room, even though I'm happy with the one I have there, move all my furniture to the middle of the room so I can see the difference? On content that isn't widely available yet and won't be for years?

And that's from a PRO 4k article, where they also say:
No thanks. I have plenty of cash to buy a tv, but one of the reasons I do is I don't throw it away on "Jump through hoop A, hop around on one foot for 5 minutes while patting your head and reciting the Chinese alphabet backwards, and THEN you will see some difference" solutions.
It's just not there yet dude, and I'll wait until it is. Look what happened to the "Everything will be 3d!" craze of a couple years ago. Never happened.

It's not you.
