With tools like radarr the quality is usually what you want now a days but it takes up a lot of space so you have to pick and choose what’s worth it
Comment on Best Buy to end DVD & Blu-ray disc sales
lemmyvore@feddit.nl 11 months agoBlu Ray is still the best quality you can get. Streaming services will compress the shit out of everything (even when they pretend you give you “4k”) and pirate rips are all over the place. Buying a Blu Ray (and ripping out yourself if you do please) is a great investment because you own it, and the quality is great, and the discs have been designed to last 100 years or more.

Yeah I have no problem finding 1:1 Bluray rips but they’re 30GB-100GB files, which adds up quick if you’re starting a collection.

So if it’s going to take up space I’ll just rip the 4k disc directly and keep the menus, extras and know that I’m not transcoding it to keep the original quality.

100% this. People jizz themselves over resolution and dynamic range all while having no idea that their image quality is shit due to compression destroying the bitrate of the video they are viewing.
