I watch a fair amount of series, but I'm not a data hoarder. I see the value in 2GB episodes, but I watch most series on my laptop, my simple 1920x1080 tv or even my phone where that value doesn't make a difference. If I want to have a theater experience, I'll go to the theater.

Most of the times I just want to enjoy a good story and relax before I go to bed.

I don't have infinite storage and I hate when I want to download something new, but Im out of storage, so I have to delete stuff first.

absolutely agree. for most shows, I don't particularly care what I download, but for specific shows like GoT, I'll go for the high quality x264 copy

I forgot about GOT! Yes, I got larger files for GOT as well.

some of the best releases are still in x264. can't wait for av1 to be more mainstream, though.
