Why are most TV sports/news/events streamed at 720/1080p when the technology is there and most people have 4k tvs?
In: 0
Most people don’t really have good enough eyesight to see the difference between 4K and 1080p. You have to have a really big TV and sit really close to distinguish between the two.
But while upgrading to a 4K TV might be fairly cheap, upgrading to *broadcast* in 4K is extremely expensive. And people haven’t complained, so most TV stations see no reason to spend a giant amount of money upgrading when most of their viewers can’t even see the difference.
