4K Blu-ray discs arriving in 2015 to fight streaming media

[Field Marshall Bradley]

What happened to Blu Ray media taking over the industry...

People will always value price and convenience unless the tech\experience is substantially better.......

Good luck trying to watch sports in 4K. Cable companies and stations can't even give us 1080p

One of you d.d. dudes needs to explain how streaming will work when that entire business model is a contradiction to what the Internet providers are willing to give

You remember those clowns too?

Cats spent hundreds and some even THOUSANDS updating their DVDs to 1080P blu-rays and now some are going to TRIPLE dip to jump to 4K

Ill be enjoying 4k blu ray while you struggle to download 720p copies while your internet provider throttles your speed.

struggling to download in 2014?

ISP throttling speeds?

Majority of Consumers want to stream and that's what ISPs are going to give, you know what ISPs aren't going to sell physical media

I notice that companies are taking people who are serious about music, and film, more serious. Sony just released their hi res walkman, which is bliss for music lovers who want studio quality, and now this with 4k blu-ray. I think the average person won't go with it but, there are enough people who want this to keep it going. I'm one of them.

but blu wasn't as adopted as much as they thought .. DVD's still have like 70% of the market

It was a stop gap from the very beginning breh. The ISP's need to get their shyt together to really give the people what they want.

@midwesthiphop you getting the new iPad with blu-ray drive on it?

Thats pretty much what it boils down to.




Streaming and downloading is for peasants that dont care about quality. The people that wear apple ear buds.

Prove that then, cause by all accounts it looks like the ISPs are working as hard as possible to stop streaming media or drive the cost up because it kills cable.

ISPs sell cable breh and streaming is bad for that
