However, to expand the coverage of users of the UHD technology, companies like Sony and LG now produce UHD TV models that sell for only for $3,000 - $4,500. This attractive price is predicted to attract more and more buyers of UHD TV despite the fact that the 4K sources of contents have now been far from rich.
