Will HD ever be called SD?

How long do you think untill we don't think of HD TV anymore as HD? I kind of think that humans are stuck calling everything HD from here on out. That or until a new technology replaces LCD's all together. Even if the entire world had HDTV's I can't see manufacturers removing the label. Even if a new higher resolution set was released at 2160P They would probably label it HDH or HD+. And with the advent of 3D we will have 3D HD.
 
Edit: Fine  4320p. Stop calling me out on that lol

Almost like the "Next Gen" talk of consoles. I still see people refer to Xbox 360 and PS3s as next gen although they are this generation already

Good point... standard definition is below standard nowadays.  You can just say it stands for shitty definition if you want.

Good point. How about now? Let's start off this decade right.

HD will never stop. It will only be replaced by UD. ultra definition. quote me on this

Well we're stuck calling the World War II era the "modern age." It's only appropriate for us to keep calling 1080p resolution HD.

Japan already has UltraHD AKA Super Hi-Vision which runs at 7680x4320.  So yes, in the next decade HD will become SD. "

I do not ever seeing them changing it.

Wtf. It will take longer than ten years to bring that stateside, and especially if they are expecting major networks to broadcast in it. Look at that damn camera, it looks like a super computer. Would love to play some games in 7680p, though. "

I like OLED expensive but very nice

I never said that it would become standard outside of Japan in the next decade.  I said that in the next decade HD will become SD. "

HD is HD, SD is SD, they'll probably just come up with a new name.

The terminology will probably disappear soon enough, but I don't think we'll find something new that we call "HD," no more than we use words like "hi-fi" anymore.

Yeah. I wasn't arguing that. My amazement was for the 7680p resolution and camera. "

HD can't and won't become SD, because those terms are both marketing contrivances and the companies selling HD products have a lot invested in that language.  But it might be fun to try and subvert them.  We could start using SD, and start calling Blu Ray discs DVDs, since that's what they are, really.  And since stereo literally means "solid", as in "full" or "real", it still totally works to describe the latest in surround sound standards.  Anyone want to come over and watch my Planet Earth DVD on my sweet 52 inch SD color television set?  I've got it hooked up to a Hi-Fi stereo system.  Yo, it's like you're really on planet earth!

Digital Versatile Disc or Digital Video Disc... good point lol

It will continue being called HD, it's just that there will be a new thing that means it's better than HD.
 
Even Hi-Fi is no longer the best there is, it's components are still called Hi-Fi.

Yeah, regardless of what else comes along, what we have now will always be called HD. It's like "oldies" or "classic rock."

" HD will never stop. It will only be replaced by UD. ultra definition. quote me on this "

" There are currently already widely availables monitors for under $1,000 that offer about 70% more resolution than HD. 1080p is starting to look relatively blurry already. "

Don't say that! I just finally jumped on a 1080p enabled TV like a month ago :/ "

SHD is the future.

XUD will replace UD in the year Two Thousand and Twenty. At that point people won't want to call it Twenty/Twenty, because it will be cool to say it the long way.

" HD will never stop. It will only be replaced by UD. ultra definition. quote me on this "

no, but there will be new HD type of name. i am waiting for cable to become HD without paying extra for HD channels.

I doubt it, It will take a really long time for there to be at least. HD to me, are PC games though, and not really anything else. 720p is what every single game pretty much runs at on a console, and that is already really low, yet plenty of games don't even run at true 720p which is very pathetic.
 
I doubt worldwide there will be some huge leap in HD for tv's and consoles to support anytime in the next 10 years.

" I like OLED expensive but very nice "

HD won't be SD until they make cyborg eyeballs that see Super Extra Awesome HD so that real life looks  cooler.

I really want Super Hi Def now. That would look AMAZING. Or like looking out of a window.

I think our definitions of SD and HD are going to stick as they are, if there's any real jump up in resolutions they'll refer to it by another name, although hopefully not something stupid like HHD.
