There's almost no 4k content anyway. And none on Netflix / Disney / Prime.

  Netflix originals are mostly (or possibly all?) available in 4k. Or are you saying the 4k streams are not of good enough quality?

    Who is providing true 4K streaming? And by that, I mean a stream quality that can improve upon a 1080p stream of the same bitrate, we are talking about 50Mbps at least, Blu ray bitrates, something like 75-100Mbps. Netflix caps at around 16Mbps, it is more of a 4K placebo. Otherwise, there is really no point to go with 4K, you can find lousy encoded content for any resolution. There is a strong trend in underground rips to provide highly compressed 1080 content that looks more blocky than its 720 equivalent of the same total file size.

      According to this, Netflix recommends at least 25mbps for 4k https://help.netflix.com/en/node/306 https://help.netflix.com/en/node/306 I honestly don't really know, video encoding is not my thing.
