It's hard because the advertising somewhat subsidies the price.(Ie: they want the ad revenue so they will sell the display at cost with the intention that they'll make all the profit back from ads)
Yo can absolutely find commercial displays in that size and resolution, but you'll pay a much higher price for them.
It's probably worth it if they're built better, which they probably are if they're intended to run continuously. So better heat dissipation, mosfets, etc.
