4k version of the video instead of the normal 1080p. 4k has four times the number of pixels.

You'll need a 4k Bluray player and 4k TV to be able to see all the details.

I haven't messed with them but you should still be able to play the 4k disk on a regular Bluray player, but it would play the normal HD version of the video.

Usually only if I'm looking specifically for aliasing issues since i'm used to looking for that sort of artifacting for work. Otherwise, I generally ignore 4k. I still only use a 1080p tv and use 1440p monitors. I have no desire to exert have 4k monitors and no need for a 4k tv

Yea, I can tell the difference but its not a big deal. I certainly wouldn't pay more for one but you cannot buy a standard 1080p tv easily where I am from. The TV I just bought has a decent upscaler so standard 1080p looks almost as good as standard 2160p(4k as they call it.) HDR10 applied to either 1080p and 2160p(4k) is a far better upgrade to me in movies and the one game I tried it on(Far Cry 5).

On this crappy little screen? I don't have enough pixels to see any difference. Only thing I notice is the download time.

I guess you need a huge screen to notice the difference. But then, everything is streamed and it takes a lot more bandwidth. Honestly, meh.
