I'm still holding out, Jack. I know my OCD would kick in and I'd have to take a out a reverse mortgage on my house to pay for all the upgrades I'd do...and then again for stuff that goes to UHD!

I don't know how UHD sales are going (there's been a hell of a lot of discounting on UHD titles in the UK and Italy recently which makes me suspicious), but if/when the boutique labels start regularly doing UHD discs (I know there are a few one offs like Suspiria, TCM and Zombi), that's when I'll jump on board. Until then I'm too cautious to invest in technology that may go in my cupboard with the HD DVD player, Laserdisc, Minidisc, Dreamcast etc.I'm bitter, I'm twisted, James Joyce is fucking my sister.

Regardless of the limited UHD content available at the moment, my point is that anyone who purchases a UHD player now won't have it laying in the cupboard with all the other obsolete tech because it's a legacy player. Even if you don't buy a single UHD title, the new player will invariably have better performance just playing standard DVDs and Blu rays due to having a newer chipset, better video processing & upscaling, tone mapping, a more robust drive mechanism, etc.
