Licensing.. Netflix can't stream what or where they don't have jurisdictions to stream.. Just cuz they can, doesn't mean they will.
Doesn't matter if rare or not. See above and reread my earlier posts. I didn't comment anything wrongly...
HDR is independent of resolution. I even explained why some 1080p titles carry HDR and why most tv manufacturers decided against making 1080p HDR equipped TVs. 4K was the thing.. Play along or get forgotten.
Yes, I'm not yet using. Doesn't mean I don't have access to a few and or possess knowledge of how UHD, native 4K, media formats, bitrates, steaming platforms, etc works.. I do..
Lastly, I've been a Netflix sub for at least 7 years.. Subs like me are referred to as "grandfathers".. Long before they launched here in Malaysia. Trust me, I know how they've been, watched them grow and each month, money is thrown at them.. FYI, there are 1080p HDR displays..notably monitors.. Similarly for 2K monitors.. Also most UHD TV displays out there aren't even capable of displaying at Native 4K res. As for why I haven't jumped on the 4K/UHD HDR10 and or Dolby Vision bandwagon yet? Well, you read my other post.. Suffice to say, I own an excellent 1080p TV and see no reason to prematurely jump in while kinks are still being ironed out. Buyer's remorse is real and after being and early adopter the last time..
Come to think of it, despite Netflix's greatness, that Netflix's HDR is still heavily compressed. So sometimes you aren't even getting the good stuff. Don't believe? Grab a 4K HDR copy of any title and compare.
I agree..I'm moving on..
Just cuz they can, doesn't mean they will - now your statement is correct, previously you mentioned "its usually because the 4K stream can't be delivered at the time" this is wrong as it is they want or don't want not they can or cannot.Doesn't matter if rare or not. See above and reread my earlier posts. I didn't comment anything wrongly...

Also most UHD TV displays out there aren't even capable of displaying at Native 4K res. Most? maybe you only look for unknown brand or you had at least 2 years never check new model in market.
HDR is independent of resolution - Why you keep mentioned this? I know this, it is not only you know what is HDR. HDR is in still image photography dunno how many decade, I won't said I know it how many decade but at least I know it 20 years or more, I know it had nothing to do with resolution nor-matter it is still image or moving object video.
there are 1080p HDR displays..notably monitors.. Similarly for 2K monitors - I know this also, I am very particular on display, I don't throw money choose the most expensive, the best, but I won't choose the worst either. I choose in between and I everyday check IT site, Mobile site and etc, beside this IT is my boring routing job every working day.
I've been a Netflix sub for at least 7 years.. Subs like me are referred to as "grandfathers" - Yup you are but you also is the one is dated because you already considering stop at 4K HDR era. You still circle in your damn good 1080p era. You not move forward but you are stopped. Your this statement sound like I eat more salt than you, I know more than you. In fact this never is the case if the person never continue improving but stopping there.
Netflix's HDR is still heavily compressed. So sometimes you aren't even getting the good stuff. Don't believe? Grab a 4K HDR copy of any title and compare - I got around 250 titles in 4K HDR and a lot of them is remux copy of 4K UHD blu-ray, beside this I also got some physical 4K UHD Blu-ray. I also got more than 300 titles of physical Blu-ray, thus I always compare what 4K HDR beneficial on those old title.
On streaming site, beside Netflix, I got more than 150 titles of iTunes movies. This further my comparison among each.
I know pretty well how the quality of Streaming 4K HDR v/s actual 4K UHD blu-ray. Streaming quality is not that bad and I assure a lot cannot tell the differences. Recently Netflix seems reduce the compression as I notice it looks better than last time on same title I play before. Netflix 4K HDR is not the best but it is still in a very acceptable level to enjoy.
This is my last statement for this topic because it is way out from original topic of what movie you watch today. I only said why Netflix don't release it as 4K HDR because I prefer it is, you can make this became huge topic, sorry I am sticking back to actual topic now.
