Why are most TV sports/news/events streamed at 720/1080p when the technology is there and most people have 4k tvs?
In: 0
Sure, they have 4k tvs. But do they have 4k terminals of some kind?
For example, do most people have a 4k cable package and device? Do most people have ps5s, ps4 pro, or roku4k? Or a computer strong enough to handle 4k without lagging.
Heck, do most people buy a 4k tv because they really want 4k, or just because it’s becoming ubiquitous for the tv market?
As other mentionned, streaming anything in 4k is much more expensive on the cable provider’s/streaming site’s/producer’s end, so you need a strong consumer demand beyond even just having a 4k capable tv before they upgrade everything.
