    4K is a massive jump in resolution from 1080p, if you upscale from 1080p the results aren't pretty

    They are. They're very pretty. CES proved that to me, given the wealth of 4K TVs and the dearth of 4K media

    HDMI for all devices for us - except....

    On the 360 - Tried HDMI - but decided to go back to Component (5 wire RGB L/R) as the colours were much better - more vibrant - the XBOX HDMI colours were very flat and washed out in comparison?
    I dont think its the TV as we tried a PS3 with HDMI on that TV and that looked fine.

    Upscaling can only fill in so many blanks before the results start to look bad. Upscaling from 1080p to 4k doesn't mean your getting a 4k picture...it means its an upscaled 1080p picture in a 4k container.

    I know what upscaling is

    I never said you didn't, you seem to however be making the point that an upscaled image in a 4k container looks the same as a native 4k image

    I'm not making that point at all, I'm making the point that that's exactly how it's going to be put across.
