Isn't that primarily just a matter of time before people move over though? A majority of manufacturer's no longer have 720P on their production lines even - when the big names like Sony / Samsung etc all follow suit, 1080 will be the lowest level of spec that you can buy.
A lot of the older machines are still functional though, right? I mean aside from the digital transfer, they should still work, no? The problem is that we have gone from CRT's to 8K in like the space of 15 to 16 years and while older systems are effectively obsolete, the rate of upgrades is ridiculous and I swear it puts people off as a new advancement in technology is available like every 6 months. The refresh rate works as a deterrent for larger household appliances IMO.
