          If you’re in india then my understanding is that IPTV is the most cost effective option by a large margin. I"ve never lived there but my family is scattered between Bangladesh and india and they all use IPTVs.

          but I guess to answer your original question: regional pricing

      Is Netflix 4k bitrate of comparable quality to uh, say a ripped bluray?

      Does that Netflix sub have ads?

      Genuine questions, I don’t know.

      You could also try to factor in the uh, cost of internet and datacaps and all that.

      Could probably save some money in the long run, though thats gonna vary a lot by location and use case and I guess income/wealth situation, household size, all that.

        BluRays are obviously better. I was just saying that not subscribing to Netflix is America will save a lot more than not subscribing in India. But the storage cost is very similar.

        No, that sub does not have ads. There is, however a mobile only, 480p, subscription too, for less than 3 USD.
