I guess I'm thinking of it more in theory rather than in terms of what's currently possible. Yeah, on today's playing field 8k would be exponentially more expensive. But that doesn't mean there isn't tech out there waiting to be discovered that could change the way data is handled. I'm thinking of it in terms of searching for the microchip of cable and internet provisions. It'll happen. Just a matter of 10 years or 50.
