Are all of the new Paramount movies upscaled?
Why would people pay a premium price for upscaled content, especially when they're older movies that are already available for free via other streaming services?
Upscaling it at the head end might conceivably produce a slightly better result than allowing the television to upscale it, but it incurs a bandwidth cost. That is, upscaled content won't take as much bandwidth to send as a real 4K stream, but it will take a lot more than it takes to send a 2K stream. Since you're not really providing any real new pixels, why would anyone pay first for your upscaled content, then again in terms of paying for the bandwidth it requires.
It's very hard for NTEK to charge a premium price for upscaled content, especially when real companies like Netflix offer genuine 4K content for much less.
Surely any owner of a 4K television wanting the ultimate viewing experience won't accept warmed-over content from a company that's very obviously going to disintegrate soon over lawsuits and criminal investigations. The company's situation is very evident to most any casual observer. Would anyone looking into NTEK take more than 5 minutes to learn that the brains of the operation is currently in federal prison for fraud, that continued dilution appears to be going directly into his pocket (if orange jumpsuits even have pockets), and that the company can't even answer the simplest questions in his absence, like about the identity of its current CEO?
I can't wait to see Aaron "the porn guy" Taylor's rehashing of Foley's glib assertions that he's not going to prison.
