33 MegaPixel TV in 2015

psyph3r writes "The Japanese communications ministry is investing in a new broadcast display technology with NHK to launch a 33 million pixel, 24-point surround-sound broadcast standard by 2015. The standard will use a video data rate of 24Gbps and an audio data rate of 28Mbps. This must be surreal in person."

Mythbusters: Blowing shit up and building expensive rigs to (dis)prove pointless myths, even though anyone who didn't sleep through high school physics could easily calculate the result. You don't get hands-on experience from watching someone else doing it on TV.
