A lot more. A 4k disc has a bitrate of 128Mbps. Right now there are HDMI cables that can push 8Gbps and can be bought at Walmart.
The returns definitely are diminishing though. I am really struggling to see differences between 4k and 8k on an 80" screen at 6ft away – granted, I was looking at a floor model.
I think the real value is in archival though. If you have the true copy then you’ll know you’re not suffering any generational loss whenever you transcode the file. It’d also be nice to get the IMAX versions of movies with no loss of detail.
I’m not sure physical home media has enough life left in it to attempt to change players/formats again, not for that small of a (noticable by end user) change. That’s the sad truth.

I suppose, but I was just answering your question.
Your hardware needs to support this though and it’s typically higher end hardware that can do this reliably
What’s wrong with a harddrive?
Nothing really. But I doubt they’d ship a whole hard drive for one movie.
Some 8k things are barely noticeable and some are MAGNIFICENT. The best ones I’ve seen are nature shit. THE FUR
True. Especially in theaters
