Netflix had already promised to do its best to bring as much 4K content to the masses as possible and today it added one of the most popular shows of all time to the 4K stable.
With any new technology standards or formats, there's always a trial stage whereby an assessment is made as to whether moving towards it is a viable or necessary pursuit. While 3DTV continues to struggle through lack of content and general interest, 4K looks to be taking strides as the next de facto quality level for our viewing pleasure, and the Blu-ray Disc Association's decision to announce 4K Blu-ray discs suggests that this will be the natural next step.
The battle between Sony's PlayStation 4 and Microsoft's Xbox One is already heating up nicely and we don't even have proper release dates for either of them yet! One area that it appeared that Sony's new machine may have the edge was support for the next standard in HD – Ultra HD. With Sony confirming that the PS4 will indeed support 4K Ultra HD for video only (no gaming!), all eyes were on Microsoft during its big Xbox One reveal, only for 4K to be conspicuous by its absence.
