Sorry if this was asnwered before, but couldn't find it. I can't seem to find any groups that usually release really small sized 4k rips like rarbg used to do. Movies went from ~5GB to ~20GB, and I really can't tell that much difference in quality that justifies 4x the size.

Tried some YTS rips, but the quality is WAY worse than RARBGs rips :(

5gb for 4k?

That's a hell of a compression algorithm.

They were HEVC iirc, but 5 GB for 1.5 hours will hurt the quality quite a lot.

in terms of quality, not as much as some YTS and other examples I've been seeing lately. RARBG rips were really the sweet spot for me :(

So my best bet for now is to go back to 20GB movies? Well, not that worrysome, there's very few movies coming out lately that I really want to archive
