            I've got a 47" LG I've turned on maybe 3 times this year just to be sure it still works. We don't have cable and I don't have game consoles so there's not reason to turn it on.

                  I have cable but that's a total ripoff... but watching movies at home is nice with a decent sized tv and surround sound.

                    Agree, I have a laptop hooked up to the TV with intentions of watching NetFlix but just haven't done it yet. Got to much going on right now to fool with it.

                      At that size and resolution, the average person would have to sit about a meter away to resolve all of the pixels. Any further away and you have more pixels than you can actually see, so I reckon 4K is where it's going to stop for home entertainment. Unless you get an 8K projector and a big screen, but at that point you should start charging admission and sell popcorn in the hallway.

                        I was thinking along those lines. They should stop this dick measuring competition after settling on some resolution, and work harder on achieving teleporting people instead. :)

                          I've got a 27" Samsung that receives sunspots really well, but at my age, they're all reruns.
