[12:31:45] <exec> 08└─I'm sure it'll look great, but if they are sticking a 2 hour long 4K video on a 100 GB medium, it is going to be ridiculously compressed. (3840 x 2160) pixels per frame * 24 bits per pixel * 60 frames per second = 5.375 TB/h. For a 2 hour movie, that works out to greater than 99% compression rate.
