Even though you may believe that you are watching "TRUE HD" its not
going to happen in your home. You are watching a compressed signal
its good ,really really good compression but it's still compressed.

Uncompressed 1920x1080p24 8 bit 4:4:4 sampling is 142 MB a sec
I think thats over 200 gigs of information for an hour of footage and
just not possible at home.

Our home monitors are capable of much more than home
sources can deliver right now. Smaller screens play nicer
with 480 & 720 flavors and a big screen will need the extra
pixels but will also show some of the compromises of
compression.
