Streaming with high bit rates (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I have a Disney plus subscription through my family and watched a cool animation film yesterday. Sadly the horrible nitrate destroyed all the nice particle effects wich really took me out of the experience.

Are there any sites wich offer high quality streaming or should I look into torrenting for blue ray rips?

Transcoding for 1080p, which is usually 6-7mbit/s, you can downsample it to 300kbits if you like. FYI, Netflix is about 2-3mbit, premium is like maybe 10.

Transcoding is not allowed for 4k.

4k bitrate varies from 10mbit/s to like 60-80mbit/s, so at least 100mbit link is recommended.

Almost all new content is available both in 1080p and 4k. Some older stuff only in 4k.
