I have a friend who always downloads the smallest (by file size) copy of any video he can find. He has a 75" 4k TV, 5.1 surround speakers, the whole setup but he downloads 720p in stereo almost exclusively. He says he just doesn’t care about the video or audio quality. It blows my mind, but some people are just weird.
Edit: Also, Paul is just a funny movie, if you’re into goofy movie references.
Perhaps some Youtube’s done a video on it… I feel like I’ve seen a headline or link saying something like “Why Paul is underrated” recently.
I didn’t know there was an extended version, do the extra 6 minutes add anything? Maybe not
Thing that gets me. This is the 720p version… surely people would want the 1080p version? Lol

Easier to find a 75" in 4k than 720p resolution I guess?
But I can’t rationalize the sound aspect.
Wait till you find out about the people who play shooters at literally the lowest quality possible AND 30fps
Edit: from my friend who does this, he likes the idea of using as little power as possible
In some cases it renders less in the game, making the game easier, too.
Unless it’s not rendering the baddies.
I roll a d4 for my FPS at the lowest possible quality. I literally can’t go higher.
A lot of pros play shooters at low just to get more fps.
I’m talking about what the YouTuber LowSpecGamer used to do. Running fallout 4 on a fire stick type stuff.
If they’re watching on a phone, 720 might be fine. My preferred resolution depends a lot on what device I’m watching on and its screen size.
So if you have newer nvidia based card you can upscale to 4K based off 7 20p
The result is closer to 1440 p
But, why not just download the 1080p version? Instead of doing the whole upscaling thing?
Because you can download faster and then upscale instantaneously
You’d need to have a wire made of bamboo to justify the 2gb more.
And with the added resolution you can even better scale it up.
Except it looks like shit compared to just getting a 1080 version.
What, what? How and can I do it over Plex? Got a link, please?
Probably just an extra six minutes of Seth Rogan’s annoying laugh.
Na, man. It’s too damn long
