I very much doubt that the acuity of the human eye will allow anyone to detect the difference between HD and 4K (let alone 8K which is already being demonstrated at the trade shows). I'm typing this using a 4K computer monitor, and I've convinced myself it's superior to my old 24" HD one, but (of course) I sit only a couple of feet from the screen. Unless your living room is big enough for a 100" telly (and you then sit almost on top of it) I'm not sure what benefit 4K gives you.
