A new TV offers the possibility to watch 4k movies to me. I am thinking about upgrading my library but I'm not sure if I want to replace my 1080 collection. I've read that some use a separate 4k library.

Do you? How do you deal with it? I mostly add movies with trakt and radarr automatically. Do you use separate accounts?

Typically I only seek out 4K content if it's an "event" type of movie like a big budget blockbuster or something like that. Maybe I'm just getting old, but I typically don't have a problem watching my movie collection in HD when I grew up watching beta and VHS cassettes.

I agree. Most movies of mine are 1080p, which look great with high enough bitrate. 4K is for the big flashy movies which clearly benefit.
