you know, I’ve never actually bought a bluray video before, maybe I’ll pop one in my ps5 and see if I’m blown away, or more likely if the other sources start having things I cant unsee

I did recently get back into piracy, and did a couple comparisons since I figured 4gb h265 is so last decade, and I really wasnt amused by the larger bluray rips. I have 20/10 vision acuity and can also see a broad vivid colorspace. I have great monitors and screens chosen for that color space and quality too.

Honestly if we compare a 10gb compressed re-encode to a 4K bluray rip or remux I would have trouble telling the difference but 4gb is pretty small especially for certain kinds of movies.

There’s certain scenes where I can definitely see compression artifacts or whatever and others where quality differences cannot be noticed.
