Recently picked up an Apple TV 4K and it's a great thing.
Apple Music lossless sound quality very impressive, (better than my Room streaming setup?), best quality pic and sound too for streaming Apps like Netflix, Disney+ YouTube and the like.
Tried a few different ways to access these, built in TV app, Nvidia Shield, PlayStation 5 and the little Apple box betters them all.
No glitches, no picture issues... Feels solid and 'just works'.
Impressed with Apple Music,
Wondered what their Movie service and quality was like?
ITunes store offering some Billy bargains,
20 quid for all 10 Star Trek movies sound good?
Many of them remastered in 4K Dolby Vision too.

Picked up another few bargains,
4K Dolby Vision versions for under a fiver. :stalks:

Picture quality wise, Apple's 4K Dolby Vision is a very small ball hair off the Disc of the same movie, played on my modded Oppo 203.
It's the Availability, cheap price and 90% pic n sound quality of Apple's offering compared to buying the Disc that's got me interested.
Original disc is better, but just a wee bit.
Mentioning this for folks that may be curious.
Streaming's came of age I think?
That said,
And similarly (IMO) to vinyl v digital, if you want that extra little bit of quality on the top go for physical media.
But it's diminishing returns stuff,
Watching Flash Gordon in 4K Dolby Vision, :eek:
And if you can get quality like this for a fiver..
Putting this out there for folks that might be curious., I've done the comparison.
