I hope they allow playback of 4K content... right now they only do that for Apple TV.

I purchased a bunch of movies from iTunes and was excited when they announced they’d upgrade it all to 4K for free (until they said it could only be played on Apple TV)

Hm. What device were you looking to play back 4K content, if not a TV? Wouldn’t the viewing distance for a computer monitor need to be quite close to make it discernible?
I want to be able to play back the iTunes movies I bought on my 4K TV without having to buy an Apple TV device.

We just recently got a 4K OLED and the difference between that and my old HD plasma (especially with HDR features) is huge.
