4K isn't a media format + who is not to say that will just be 4K Blu Rays?

>implying laserdisc wasn't almost as good as DVD, and in some cases, still objectively better than digital media formats that rely on compression
The reality is that audiences don't give a shit about video quality. DVD sales are still better than BR.
Jayden Turner
can 4ks be played on blu ray players?
Owen Myers
I switched everything to digital a few years back, ripped it all. Never went back.
After rebuying music in various formats, I got tired of this scam.

Most people avoid 4K tvs just like they avoided 3D tvs. Forget 4K most cable, and dish providers don't even broadcast in 1080p unless it's payper-view movies you have to pay extra for. Owning a 4K tv when the everything is aired in 1080i is pointless.
Matthew Wood
And cable companies will fight tooth and nail to not upgrade their infrastructure so you could get 4k. At the very best, it'll technically be 4k, but the bitrate will be so bad, it'll look like garbage, even compared to a 1080p blu-ray.

I just bought a VHS because there's a scene that was removed from all subsequent DVD and Blu ray releases.
Zachary Cook
There were VHS tapes produced which could carry HD content. The quality is pretty good actually.

>DVD 1998?
Wtf? I just upgraded from VHS to DVD player 4 years ago. I didn’t know it was around that long. What is blury? And 4k?
Gavin James
I hoard VHS tapes like an animal because they're so cheap. So much forgotten garbage floating around on video tapes out there.
Matthew Green
also hd laser disc was out in the very early 90's
Grayson Nelson
first upgrade in terms of quality actually came with 4k bluray and 4k televisions.
Samuel Cox
There was even HDVHS
Christian Walker
the old (70s 80s) VHSs are superior build quality. Heavy weighty and the boxes are high grade laminate or cardboard.

This man is doing god's work. Love his videos. He reminds me of "real ale bores". The kinds of slightly autistic guys that go into specialist pubs and talk in extreme detail about boring subjects.

My family didn't have one until 2004
Sebastian Lopez
