It undoubtedly is. Why spend potentially millions of pounds for a format that, no matter how nice it looks, virtually none of your customer base can use?
That said, it's a bit of a chicken and egg situation. People are more likely to buy/rent 4K capable boxes and TVs if they are going to have access to more lovely 4k content, but the producers, channels and carriers (SKY/Virgin/BT etc) are not likely to have that content UNLESS they can guarantee a reasonable amount of viewers.
