Re: what other nations offer 1gb to house right now for cheap?

will not be the sweet spot very long Sony just said they want to bring 4K streaming movies to the PS4 which will require 100GB or more per movie. granted no one has a 4k set but who knows in 3-5 years.

In the lab broadcast 4kTVp50 (H.264) uses approximately 16.5~20 Mbit/s, so nowhere near the amounts quoted above. I would suspect delivery of anywhere from between 15~20GB for a 2 hour video.

In "the lab" they must be making some super shitty video as 16-20 Mbps isn't even a sufficient bitrate for 1080p24 using H.264.

20 Mbps won't even be enough to deliver proper 4K video with H.265.

Why even bother with 4K if you're not going to do it right?

H.265 is going to be 38mbps with 4K.

i was going off the numbers the verge quoted in the ps4 4k movies article. they said it was going to be at-least 100 gigs per movie.

16-20Mbps is MORE than enough for 1080p24, only someone who doesn't know how to use video compression software would hide their inability with bloated bitrates.

You ever tried watching compressed videos at 16-20 mbps vs bluray on a 60" tv or above like I have? If not shutup, they look horrible.

Yes, 16-20mbps is quite high for h.264 1080p. It doesn't start to look crappy until you get below 8 or so. Even then, it's pretty acceptable until you reach 6.

6-8 mbps matches what you get from broadcast providers (U-verse, DirecTV, DISH). Cable usually uses higher bitrate streams but with less efficient MPEG2.

Remember, 1080i/60 video needs more bandwidth than 1080p/24.

Yup, I have. Compression artifacts on cable are a lot worse than the low bitrates visually. iTunes is about 5.5 mbps with 1080p/24 (which looks really odd on TV shows), and it looks pretty good.
