The Coming 1K/2K to 4K Upconversion Disconnect
As growing sales of 4K TVs begin to seep beyond early adopters to the wider market, upconverting complaints may become more common. After all, the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) reports that DVD players can still be found in 83% of U.S. homes. Compare that to 4K-friendly Blu-ray, which has only reached 35% of households. Consumers are having their 4K expectations exasperatingly dashed because they aren't getting much warning or advice about upconverting consequences. Learn more about the disconnect between manufacturers and consumers. 
UHD Blu-ray's Narrow Opportunity Window   
A lack of 4K content presents the Blu-ray community a narrow window of opportunity to establish itself in an otherwise broadcast/DVR and streaming-centric TV consuming universe. UHD Blu-ray, even with a relatively measly 300 titles, is the biggest 4K/UHD content game in town, and will be-but not for long. Find out why the Blu-ray community must convince consumers to re-commit to disc-based content. 
Will the Cord Cutters Come Back?
There's never been a better time to be a cord cutter. Yet at the same time, pay TV options have never been so fragmented. Cord cutters and cord shavers are forced to cobble together multiple apps, and in some cases, free-to-air TV offerings to get the content they want. The dream of a la carte TV is essentially here and, like many of life's hopes, it's not quite the liberating vision we've been promised. Find out why some are actually running back into the arms of cable TV.
