It’s been less than a year since YouTube brought us 1080p streaming, and now they’ve gone to the extreme by offering us 4K streaming.  Of course, there isn’t a lot of 4k content right now, but they’ve made sure to add some just for that.

To illustrate the power of 4K, please check out the videos in this playlist; each one was created by a filmmaker with access to a 4K camera. (Be warned: watching videos in 4K, even on YouTube, will require ultra-fast high-speed broadband connections).

You really do want to check this out, but it takes a pretty strong connection.
