    What really annoys me is paying for the biggest Netflix package to get 4K content, then you watch a somewhat recent (non-Netflix) movie like The Equalizer (2014) and it’s 1080p or less with a terrible bit rate.

    That movie is available in 4K HDR. I know because I downloaded it to my Plex server and switched to watching that after 15 minutes of watching macroblocking and pixelation artefacts via the legal method.

      Your next step is to stop paying for the shit version. Things only change when you hit their wallet

    Don’t forget that when you search you also need to wade through AI-generated SEO trash that doesn’t actually tell you which service it’s on.

      I’m so fucking done with the garbage AI articles that give nothing. Do nothing. Just waste time and space to try to eat up and revenue I don’t even give because I have ad blocker sup to wazoo. If I had any way to punish them for the damage it’s doing to the internet I would in a second.
