I kind of feel the same way about TV resolution. I have a 1080p TV and a 720p TV and I'm honestly fine with them. Sure, there's better quality out there, but I can always go to the movies if I want that. And I have the advantages of TVs without any 'smart' bullshit. They can't even connect to the internet.
I'm not saying no one else should buy 8k TVs or whatever, if that's what you want, fine, but there are plenty of people I've talked to who feel the same way as me, so I'm glad they haven't done anything like make us all change to new TVs again like they did when they updated to HD.
I literally have a higher resolution computer monitor than I do TV. My computer monitor costs more than my TV did too!
