I do not miss 480p. Just go on YouTube and watch a video on the lowest resolution if you miss the experience lol

The 480p streams on Youtube are significantly worse than 480i/p video on Laserdisc or DVD, that's not a fair comparison. Youtube's compression algorithm is utter shit for picture quality.

480i blown up on a 4k 50 inch display is going to look terrible compared to native 4k content, but on a 30 inch CRT it looked just fine
