[Bglug] World’s first 8K TV broadcasts begin for Rio 2016 Olympics

[Brad Rodriguez]

It depends on the size of the screen and how far you sit from it.  Within
a 60-degree viewing angle, most people resolve between 4 and 7
megapixels.

An 8K x 4K display would be 32 megapixels, which is a bit excessive.

Cheers,
Brad
