Interesting points. I have a 50" plasma, and a 15" rMBP that I am typing on now. Looking at the TV as I type they are roughly the same experience, viewing wise due to distance away. If I watched a movie, holding my iPad, probably a similar experience, although we tend to prefer the much larger TV but its not actually larger to view on.
TV at 3 metres, away = laptop at 300mm away = iPad at say 200mm away

Interesting. Details. Wouldn't you pause a lot to see them even on a big screen? I wonder. That statement about details makes me think. I don't think movies these days have details. I can't recall ever seeing details. I used to have a 60" TV. I mean. I can't think of a single thing I would miss by watching a movie on my iPad. I'm watching a movie now. On Netflix. It's a documentary. I'm having a difficult time imagining what I am missing. Maybe I should be watching better video lol yea okay maybe I wouldn't watch the lord of the rings on my iPad. Actually. Probably i would. I Dunno. I'll nafta think any this. Maybe I would enjoy video more on a 72" 5k super HD-3D-TV and that would help me understand what I'm missing out by watching Netflix on my iPad. Ima hafts ponder this. I guess it's telling that I'm pondering a thoughtful subject and composing an email while watching a documentary.
Cheers!

Intriguing. Apple just works :o)
My old eyes can't watch video on even an iPad, though, without missing a *lot* of detail. Not a bit satisfying. That 68% must be mostly kids, with their 20/20 vision.

Apple Dominates Streaming Video Market Thanks To iPhone, iPad
Whether or not a new version of Apple TV debuts at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday, it's already clear that streaming video is key to Cupertino's growth. According to new data from Adobe Digital Index, the iPhone maker is leading its competitors in streaming video consumption globally across multiple categories, including mobile video streaming and pay-TV streaming subscription services -- known in the marketing industry as TV Everywhere.

On the mobile front, Apple is dominating with its iPhones, which accounted for 68 percent of online video plays in the first quarter of 2015, up 7 percent from the same period last year. Apple's share is even higher when looking only at its iPad, which took 86 percent of online tablet video plays.
Apple's iPhone accounted for the majority of online video starts in the first quarter of 2015. Adobe Digital Index Looking at TV Everywhere share, the iPad remains on top with 30 percent. But the Apple TV has also gained ground, doubling its share quarter-on-quarter to 10 percent. Including desktops, all of Apple's devices accounted for nearly one in four of online video views.
Apple TV doubled its share from 5 percent to 10 percent, quarter-on-quarter. Adobe Digital Index The report is based on anonymized consumer video viewing data from over 300 different sites and apps, 201 billion online video starts and 2.5 billion TV Everywhere logins between 2014 and 2015.
The revamped Apple TV was widely expected to debut at WWDC, but those plans were postponed, according to the New York Times. A related service is also no longer expected to debut at the developer conference, since Apple hasn't finalized licensing deals, according to Re/code.
