The quality also went downhill. In my region Disney+ removed HDR support from all titles and dropped the bitrate to very low on top of that there are so many ads. Video quality is shit now. Even with subscription I'm watching PSA encodes.

Are PSA encodes terrible? The file size is always appealing but I guess there’s a reason they’re small

PSA encodes are one of the best for popular shows and movies. Just give it a try. Generally their encodes is to be consumed as it is and 4k versions might not work with some devices since they only give HDR10 and Dolby Vision encodes. If you intend to watch it with media server with transcoding better go with QxR

Okay thanks, good to know the quality is decent with the file size
