Yup... deffo a reason to stick to Netflix etc, or pay £4 for the occasional rental!

Join a 4k disc rental service then.
There are plenty of websites to buy digital films.
Check out my thread in the Apple section for digital movies.

They might be cheap, but they’re never going to have the PQ and uncompressed audio to match UHD Blu-ray.There are plenty of websites to buy digital films.

Funnily enough, I did get some wood as a Christmas present (Jack Daniels flavoured) for weber gas bbq smokey box - obviously that was before I saw this on offer haha
Any tips greatly appreciated. Is it worth buying the Chimney starter?
First to cook is definitely going to be pork ribs!
Thanks
Chimney starters are quite handy, you can get much cheaper alternatives compared to the Weber one!
Your first smoke will be without meat, this both cleans and seasons the inside.
Best advise, remote digital thermometers, dual probe ideally. I went for the ThermoPro TP20, works well.
The differences are so subtle that you can’t tell the difference unless you sit 1 foot away from the tv.
I’ve don’t plenty of testing.
Totally agree.

what was that service called before where you could rent movies and they post them out to you for a subscription? I think it was 3 a week or something. Love film! that was it.

Netflix 4k is very good but I can tell the difference a lot when using my oppo 203 player, 2001: A Space Odyssey for example on 4k disc is breathtaking.

LoveFilm went under ages ago, but there’s a service called cinema paradiso that offers 4K rental.

I know it did I was on about someone making a 4K rental service online for physical copies. I was just kidding.

Nope, I've had a good quality UHD player with my LG OLED TV and the differences weren't enough to justify the cost of UHD films which is why i chose the Apple 4K TV instead and watch my films digitally.Someone needs new glasses
I know overall a dedicated blu-ray player will give the user a better experience but i like convenience.

1080p Vs 4K is night and day to me. And we don't have a HDR set in our house.
Couldn't resist the offer - Weber Smokey Mountain
Bigger one for me
Yes! That's a fantastic price for those as well. I've got the 57cm but am really tempted to get the small one too. Firing up the big one for a couple of short ribs is a bit excessive sometimes but the missus would kill me if I had four BBQs on the patio.
Now just get yourself over to the BBQ thread in La Cuisine.

We’re not talking 1080p v 4K. We’re talking streamed 4K v 4K Blu-ray.

IQ difference between streaming 4k and UHD disc is massive hence why i rent the things, we still have Netflix and Prime but that only gets used in the Lounge.
Apple TV 4k is rubbish Atmos support is pathetic my latest gen one is sat in a cupboard rotting whilst the new Nvidia shield does a superb job at everything.

The difference between 4K Blu ray disc & 4k streaming from an 4K apple TV is not worth the price and hassle
Even in many tests they say you need to pause the picture and look from only a few feet away to see any differences
