| 1 | Thinking of stopping Sky Movies and changing to Netflix , is it worth paying the extra for HD over the SD version for picture and sound ? (only need it for one TV at home) Edited by brian_k7 at 9:37 am, Sun 7 Mar brian_k7 - 2021-03-07 09:36:00 |
| 2 | If you have a large 4K television then 4K will look great, but get standard if you don't care. The other benefit of the Premium 4K package is that you get 4 devices, so your children or friends could share it and maybe chip in on the cost.

| 3 | Yeah depends on your TV, if its UHD or 4K then you probably will appreciate the HD content. bitsnpieces2020 - 2021-03-07 10:24:00 |
| 4 | We have the Netflix premium plan but set the picture to SD as we barely notice any difference in picture quality (We have a Samsung 59 inch TV). For us that saves on data useage being in a rural enviroment. We don't unfortunately have unlimited data. benthecat - 2021-03-07 12:39:00 |
| 5 | Samsung have never made 59 inch models. spyware - 2021-03-07 17:05:00 |

| 7 | I have found actually that the picture quality depends a great deal on the recording equipment used. A good video on Youtube set at 480p can look a lot better than other videos at 1080p filmed on crappy cameras. tygertung - 2021-03-07 17:36:00 |

Then call me Mr Magoo. For me the difference is not worth worrying about - but that's just me. It certainly helps us with our data useage. benthecat - 2021-03-08 10:33:00 |

Yes yes, you like lo res monitors, modems, windows xp and now 480p. ronaldo8 - 2021-03-09 02:34:00 |
| 17 | Modems are too slow. 480p is good enough for if you are far away from the screen and not really watching it, or for the children watching videos to cut down on bandwidth. If I'm just listening to youtube music, I just put it on 144p to cut down on data usage. tygertung - 2021-03-09 08:23:00 |
