From what I was reading here, that's what I'm anticipating. Though 6 months ago, when I was in the market for a new player and was considering going 4K, I went to B&H and noticed they still have a Sony HD panel the same size as the current one I own. Don't know how long that will last though.You’ll wind up on the upgrade path I’m on, which is that I wasn’t specifically looking to buy 4K equipment but every piece of HD equipment I have that has reached end of life is no longer made for HD only, so 4K was the only option.
Like I was saying, it’s probably best not to think of it as “upgrading to 4K” but simply replacing end of life gear with what’s currently available. Your Blu-ray collection is still gonna look great on a new 4K screen so there isn’t a need to replace everything you own. But in cases where the Blu-ray just was lacking, you’ll get the new 4K disc not because you’re specifically looking for increased resolution, but simply because it’s a newer, better master that just so happens to be in 4K.
