This is still a streaming service. It is still compressed even at 4k. Perhaps Netflix someday will debut reference quality 1 for 1 blu Ray streaming for 1080p. I doubt It though.
If you are like most people, and consume a lot of streaming content. The best possible picture available to you today September 2015 will be 4k Netflix. If you truly care about the best 4k blu Ray will be out in a few months, and will be the new gold standard.
What I don't get is why you guys are giving me so much flack for simply wanting today's standard for quality. Why would you NOT want the highest quality available to you?
If this were 3 years ago, and the cheapest 4k TV available was $4,000+, and the hdmi standards hadn't even been ratified yet, then ok good points. However you can drive down to best buy today with $1000 in your pocket, and come home with a 4k TV and change in your pocket.
Can you not empathize with 4k TV owners who feel alienated by this? We will be forced to choose between high quality, and inconvenience, or lower quality and using ATV.
Not only that as it stands the only way for me to view my new 4k videos from my 6s+ will be to download them to my computer, and then move them to a usb stick. This was the perfect opportunity to move things forward, and allow people to view their videos in their full glory.
