I thought it may be good to start a thread for deals on movies mastered in 4k. Currently amazon has a bunch for $14.99 that are normally $19.99. The link below is a list of all the mastered in 4k movies available on amazon. I wonder if anyone on this site even has a 4K tv yet....if you can afford one of those, you probably aren't worried about 5 bucks, lol Well, these "mastered in 4K" Blu-rays aren't truly 4K. They're still 1080p. The whole "mastered in 4K" thing is mostly a marketing gimmick. Yeah, they work in any Blu-ray player. The "mastered in 4K" thing just means they used a high quality source to make the 1080p video. The only time this might make any difference is if a previous Blu-ray release of a movie used a crappy quality source. If you already own a movie on regular Blu-ray and think it looks great, you're not really going to get anything from buying the "mastered in 4K" version. I've read reviews on most of these and there seems to b a noticeable increase in picture quality on a 1080p tv even when the blu-ray transfer from before was very good. Also if you do have a 4k tv these will upscale to 4k. Also note that some of those 4k remaster don't have extra feature or audio track compare to standard release. yeah...I think either the digitalbits or blu-ray.com had an article that talked about comparing this to D-VHS/Superbit fiasco a few years ago. Aghh... Ghostbusters has been re-released so many times, yet GB2 is still MIA. Some people think 4k TV's are really expensive so here's a 50" 4k tv for $899.99 (I know it's not directly related to this thread) Considering the samsungs and sonys are 8-9x that amount, how does the PQ fare on that? From what I've read the build and picture quality are good. The main reason why it's so cheap is because it doesn't have any extra features like 3d, or being a smart tv. Also it isn't a name brand. Spider-Man dropped to $12.79 and Godzilla $13.99 on Amazon First off if those features don't add to the cost of the tv then why don't all TV's have those features standard? You are merely stating your opinion/prediction. I also don't know why you refer to it as "your company" I don't work for or own any Seiki products. Also if you look at my original post I was just showing people that 4k TV's aren't as expensive as most people think. That's it. Not uh! Those Blu-ray discs certainly aren't true 4k. A movie in full 4k would take terabits of data, and a BD just doesn't have that kind of space. The 4k displays look awfully nice in store, but other then the demo they show it's going to be years until 4k media is even available. Isn't 4k four times the resolution of 1080p? If so, then shouldn't it take 4 times the data? That's a lot lesss than a terabyte.
