I'm on the Netflix SD service. It's never bothered me at all and I don't see a particular reason to upgrade.

I enjoy watching the BBC on HD, however for stuff like the Attenborough films.

I have watched Planet Earth in 4K (Real 4K not Netflix "4K"). on my new Home Cinema and it's the most beautiful digital content I have ever witnessed. Absolutely incredible.

I think that’s the best use for 4k, there are lots of tiny details in nature that come to life in 4k. For other things, movies and such it may even make it worse in some cases, too much detail isn’t always better.

Recently switched from a - what used to be high-end 10 years ago - 1080p plasma TV to a 4k OLED with HDR, and I must say, the HDR is much more impressive than the 4k tbh... 1080p with HDR would be fine for me...
