I am not so sure, the gap between HDMI2.0 and 2.1 apparently isn't that big because most people cannot see the difference between 2K and 4K and will most likely not benefit from 8K. Good thing I finally decided to upgrade from a $3K AVP to a $1K AVR, now I have little fear of having to feel missing out, even if they come out with a new HDMI and/or HDCP version every couple of years. Best future proofing I have ever done!!
