4K is overkill enough. 8K is a waste of energy. Let’s see optimization be the trend in the next generation of graphics hardware, not further waste.

For TV manufacturers the 1K/4K/8K nonsense is a marketing trap of their own making - but it also serves their interests.

TV makers DON'T WANT consumers to easily compare models or understand what makes a good TV. Manufacturers profit mightily by selling crap to misinformed consumers.
