I downloaded some 200mb episodes on telegram but I've never seen such bs before. Because of that I only download from the Usenet and have a look on the nfo before.

I really shot myself in the foot downloading 4k60 versions of some of my favorite movies. The quality is great, but I can really only watch them on my gaming pc.
For any and all talk shows, there should be a sub-720p option. Don't really need the video feed at all for most of an episode.
Agreed, since I mostly watch stuff on my not-4K laptop or my not-4K phone.
For people who like to watch stuff on huge 4K screens and stuff, they'll require higher quality videos, but as long as everyone has their needs meet I'm more than fine.
Streaming is always an option. You don't need to download every video you want to watch.
Always? Sometimes not
couldn't agree more. I watch pretty much everything on a 50" 720p TV from 10ish years ago. as long as its not some god awful 240p pixelated garbage, I'm fine. When I go over to some buddies places where they have newer nicer tvs and the qaulity is better, I still am 99% focused on story and idaf about the pockmarks on someones face etc.
I don't hate extra quality but end of the day, i want to prioritize disk space without having complete garbage on quality. love it when encoders can do stuff in x265 instead of x264 to cut off a few extra MB.
i have a theory that when quality started going crazy (2K by my mark) is about the same time where story quality in tv shows started taking a big dive. Byt I'm sure lot of ppl not agree lol.
40MB anime episodes are perfection 200MB episodes are good
For me, that size in fullHD in x265 is indeed good enough.
I download the biggest files i can get. Im going to delete it when I'm done with it anyways, who cares about the space.
Blasphemy! Don't you care about your share ratio?
I primarily use Usenet, so no seeding.
Also i should mention that I do torrent occasionaly and I leave it seeding for ages. So my torrent ratios are very healthy.
