> It looks just as sharp, and has more presence on an lg oled display i instantly notice when something is 1080p vs 4k. i suggest watching an old movie in 4k. for example die hard in 4k is absolutely incredible compared with the DVD release.

  But DVD is not 1080p?

      No it isn't. The highest resolution supported by standards compliant DVD is 720x480 at 30hz, or 720x576 for 25hz/PAL.

        yup, you are correct

  Compression artifacts (common in even 4k streaming) are way more than the lower res from 1080p blurays. Compare e.g. smoky scenes.
