There's a regional TV, furniture, and appliance store here in Madison that has an LG 84" 4K TV on display (resolution - 3840 X 2160P) and they're using this loop, along with some similar indoor shots of big shopping mall atriums and cities at night as their demo.
If you can view it on a 4K TV, that's the way to watch it, not just HD.
I asked the salesman what's driving the TV, because I didn't think BluRay had the bandwidth to do it. They said they were running the demo loop off a hard drive, and they didn't have any other content that specifically used the full 4K resolution. (He tried to sell me that the upconversion would make my existing 1080P devices look better.) Their price was $16,999 for the TV, and they told me they had actually sold one. Way beyond what I can afford, but I left wanting one.
