Interesting, but I'm curious as to what applications this has. The article points out that to get the benefits of 4k over 1080p, you'd basically need either some very expensive equipment or a movie screen. This might make sense for a website providing feature-length movies as its primary content, but I'm not sure I understand why Google would implement this technology in YouTube - a video sharing site made up almost entirely of user-generated content.
