It is not. It's very clearly not HD and we gigabit internet. Other services do fine. Especially rented HD movies that are streamed. So instead of using my TV for Netflix, I watch on my laptop with a browser plugin to set a proper resolution.
- nradov 5y agoRight but the visual quality depends more on the actual bit rate than on the nominal resolution.
