## Caption

On today’s episode of You Asked: Why do Costco and other stores get TVs with unique model numbers? Are they really the same as other models, or is there a difference? Plus, how to tell if your OLED upgrade is driven by FOMO or real improvements, whether a pricier disc player is worth it for better upscaling, and the surprising reason 8K content can look better than 4K.
