I think people here sometimes obsess over resolution and contrast. Yes, it's nice to have, but I'm not going to throw a less-then-300-dpi device into the trash can. Or demand the latest in contrast technology before I'll agree to read a book.
My home theater setup is 4K. And 4K movies look good on it. Especially when you add HDR to the mix (that actually makes a much bigger difference than the 4K). But 1080 movies look good as well. And so do 720 movies. And I still watch DVDs on it too (gasp, not even Bluray - although I have that capability - but plain old regular DVDs). What are those, 480 I think? They are fine. Can I tell a difference? Of course, if I walk up close to the screen and examine the pixels. Does it make any difference in enjoyment of a movie? No.
I read books to enjoy them. Not to microscopically examine the pixels on my eReader.
