Because every conceivable medium has adopted 1080p as their native resolution, including the consoles that will be with us for the next decade...not the ones from last decade. More than 50% of American households have a 1080p display. While it's certainly overkill, even tablets and phones are headed that direction.
720p will go away because ~4.5''/1ft (or what Apple would have you believe is the Retina's Acuity) does not scale. 1080p however is close-enough, and an adopted standard.
Just like the 16:9 aspect ratio itself, 1080p is a bastardized compromise that will be with us for a long time
well if u want an 4k display u can get it for 8000$ can't you wither ibm of hp sells those
