Parks reported that 19 percent of U.S. broadband households intend to purchase a flat-panel TV set by the end of 2015. Roughly 40 percent of those households are looking for a 4K TV set, which is approximately 7.5 percent of U.S. broadband households, while 42 percent of U.S. broadband households indicate they are not familiar with 4K technology. Parks Associates reported that low familiarity, low willingness to pay premium prices, content concerns and a cooling market for flat panels in general all present challenges to 4K.
