Japanese government plans ultra high-definition TV standard for 2015

article published on 14 January, 2008

Nowadays, if you have a HDTV that can display 1080p video, you have the best picture quality that high-definition can offer to consumers right now. We have reported several times in the past about UHDV, or Ultra High-Definition Video, which later became known as Super Hi-Vision. For most of our readers, going by comments and feedback, it seems like a dream that won't be seen for a long time yet. ... [ read the full article ]

I live in Kinokawa which is outside of Osaka and it is really out in the country. We have the worst tv reception in Japan because of our loction and I have 100MBPS fiber connection. It's really funny. I run a smooth 20MBPS up and down on my main computer and still have 2 other computers and an XBOX 360 and can have all on and running and no slow down on my bandwidth. Then I read recently that they are looking at gigabit in the next 2-3 years.

But for technology they have 1080p boxes that will beam hdmi to other tv's in your house and the Bluray and HD-DVD players and burners and sat receivers and digital receivers and have internal hard driver for recording basically 1 unit does everything. I am suprised it dosent wash the dishes also.

They dont have cable run through the country, all the time in America that we continued to run antique material they were running fiber. In America we all went with cable tv and it ran the market for a long time. Now our biggest investors in the industry are running hard cable that can not compete with fiber. If Verizon and a few of the others go full out at droping fiber in all the neighborhoods they could make Time Warner and Comcast and the rest into Dinosaurs. Which Time Warner is really bad for customer service and their tech's couldnt find their asses with 2 hands and a template.

Time Warner is starting bandwidth restrictions in Texas and then it will go country wide. Too much traffic in the neighborhood on hard cable so your unlimited one price per month cable modem will be back to pay as you go soon. It is also in the contract that they can change it from one price to pay as you go. So they have precalculated on how to charge you more but havent come off a dime to joining in the future. The next step is HD streaming or download and with the bandwidth restriction they will be able to collect double on you for the added bandwidth.
