Yeah .. but as a pirate, the internet already has the movie for me. So I don't really care about owning it. I can get 4k hdr copies of every movie I want without filling up my house with movies 99.9$% of which I will never watch again. I pay for netflix, and sail the rough seas for the rest of my movies and shows. I mainly have netflix for background sounds and because my little sisters and family use it.
the only way of knowing this would be to compare both final products, comparing bit rate on different encodes is pointless unless they both use the exact same settings.
Yeah, I'm buying 4K discs for now. They can easily be improved though. People with a proper audio system notices a big difference between 3D audio in the cinema and the Blu-ray. The source is different, it's not a bitrate problem. This can easily be improved in the future. The cinema mix already exists. Personally I think several modern movies have the same dialogue problem as Tenet. Not as much, but it is a problem. Digital upscales can be improved. Some films got bad 4K scans in the first place. HDR isn't always done right. Too much grain is sometimes removed. They are put on 60GB discs instead of 100GB. They sometimes come without IMAX scenes, I really hope people don't buy the new Avengers movies. A lot can be improved! I dislike piracy. I want studios to make more movies, therefore I should pay. Simple as that. With my Blu-ray purchase I'm basicly giving myself the right to pirate in the future. Although they concider that stealing, I don't. Purchasing the same movie several times is stupid. Everything will eventually end up at a home media server and I have the discs as backups.
@@Andersljungberg it will be almost all of it. Streaming only supports lossy DD+ much less than 1Mbit, usually max 640K. Even TrueHD with Atmos audio track on a UHD disk is usually about 5Mbps on average. There is vastly more pixel data than sound data.
The annoying part is that many newer streaming devices are already equipped to be able to handle Dolby TrueHD with a firmware update. It's really up to the streaming services to decide to start carrying it.
Once upon a time, you could rent physical blu-ray discs at a fixed monthly cost. Those who do not want to buy movies today unfortunately have limited opportunities? in that city I live in Sweden There is now no store that rents movies and there are more than 70,000 people living in my city
80 Mbps is a lot of bandwidth. You can easily fit as much lossless audio as you like in less than 1/4 of that and still have plenty for video, especially with more recent state of the art video codecs.
There are probably some that point to 24-bit audio on Tidal and Qobus. sounds better than 16-bit CD and there are places to buy downloads of music with high sound quality such as HD Tracks
I bought LOTR digital in HD 10 years ago on iTunes and it’s now been upgraded to the 4K Dolby Vision/Atmos version without another purchase. That’s happened on all of my movies that have a 4K version. I’d say streaming is the most future proof option.
@@tsellsseashells You own nothing. They can censor or remove your content at any time without your permission. They also have no resell value or collector value.
@@tsellsseashells Any one of your 4K movies will still look better on a Blu-ray disc than it will through streaming. The Lord Of The Rings 4K movies can have up to 100+ Mbps on a 4K Blu-ray disc. Streaming services like Netflix and Apple do not even come close to that. The newly introduced Sony BRAVIA Core 80Mbps Streaming comes closer to that, but still less. And that is only content that Sony owns and if your connection speeds can handle it. The only thing you gain from streaming, is closet space. I have very little.
@@blarbful I’m fine with a license to play a movie at its most current format as long as Apple is still a company. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say it’s probably gonna outlive 4K blu ray as a current format. And you can rebuy all of your movies again in 5 years so you can own it.
As others pointed out, the bitrate comparison is only valid if they are using the same CODEC. Sony has already announced that all their 2021 XR TVs support AV1 decoding. They could also be using some proprietary codec even better than AV1. You will need to compare actual content to determine at what bitrates their service meets or exceeds 4K disc quality. We also need to see what bitrate they will use for audio.
Of course a blu-ray player will provide a higher bit rate than a streaming service. I think a better comparison would be between Bravia Core and other streaming services, particularly those only offering their own titles.
@@xintimidate It's the same quality, but of course you'll be the person on earth who can make the difference between an 80 Mbps movie and a 95 Mbps movie. Yep... That's like having a blu ray with 8Mbps and one with 12 Mbps... You would see exactly ZERO difference. Even if you could watch both films at the same time, if you had two TVs next to each other, you would not be able to tell which version is the one with the higher Bitrate.
@@Mister__Jey I love how youre telling me whether or not I would tell the difference you dont know me. Dont pretend you do. Youre naive if you believe it will hold a constant 80Mbps. Especially with most peoples internet connections now in days. On top of that discs have far superior sound quality he even explained that in the video but of course you probably didnt watch the video and decided to comment anyways. If you did watch the video thats a reflection to your comprehension skills. Same people that said you wouldn't notice a difference between 25mbps and 4k blu ray were wrong just like they are now. The difference wouldnt be 80mpbs vs 4k blu ray which can get over 100mpbs it will more than likely be 40-50mpbs vs 4k blu ray.
@@xintimidate I don't have to know you, because NO ONE can tell the difference between a the same movie with 80Mbps Bitrate or with 90Mbps... But just think BELIEVE that you could find out the difference, and that it would be so significant that it really matters 😂👍 Always the same people as you, they think. They have the total clue and know everything better, and in reality they have no clue at all, as you just proved with your answer. And the lowest internet speed I get from my provider is 50Mbps... The lowest... There is a 100, 250, 500 and 1000Mbps package... And if you don't live in a village with 500 inhabitants, almost everyone has access to these internet speeds. But the thing with the sound is very interesting, because for the internet speed you have to pay 5 € more so that you get the appropriate internet speed to stream the 80 Mbps. But to get the FAR SUPERIOR sound, you need an appropriate sound system and AV receiver that costs significantly more to purchase... When 70% of all TV user just use there TV speakers and don't even have a simple soundbar And if you're not watching the film in the original English anyway, you'll usually get the worse audio output anyway. This has always been a problem when movies are released on optical stores.
Regarding the XR Processor, is there a possibility that their streams are in AV1 and not in HEVC? That would explain why the older TVs cannot decode the stream, also that would mean that the picture quality should be very similar to HEVC Blu-Rays.
It comes bundled with the TV, it will be significantly better quality than other streaming services. It’s a pretty nice add-on for free IMO. Ultra-HD Blu-Rays might be technically better, but they are costly, are disks and not readily available, but glad there is the option for them. Thank you for the video 👍🏻
Even if the quality of streaming would surpass physical discs I would still get my favorite movies/tv shows on discs. I'm free to watch them how and when I want with a constant picture quality. With streaming you're never sure what you get and if their servers or ISP have problems you're f*ked.
Just to add I'm not anti-streaming. Just that I prefer discs for obvious reasons. But it's nice to see innovation and evolution of streaming tech and services. More (and better quality) choices is always good.
Considering the most likely scenario: the streamed content is the content of a 4K UHD blu-ray stored on a server ... the theoretical absolute maximum you can expect is the 1:1 blu-ray quality ... more likely any stream will always show an inferior quality due to several losses t.b. expected in the supply chain.
It'll be a sad day, if & when, physical disc media becomes obsolete in favor of streaming services. I am, and have been committed to physical media since it's inception (the lowly CD, actually,) and continue to support it by purchasing players (as required,) and of course adding as much 4K Ultra Bluray content to my ever-growing library as possible !!
@@samwalsh8299 do recall at one point the world was doubtful that UHD would gain enough popularity to produce enough titles to support the format. FHD blu-ray was enough.
@@iBullDoser Unlikely. 80 Mbps sounds like a lot now, but in 5 years for many it will be much more viable due to new satellite based internet services with 100+ Mbps like SpaceX Starlink. If anything I could see this service gaining more bandwidth over time. Or at least employing newer video codecs to make more efficient use of existing bandwidth.
4K BD will always be better, but I think the BRAVIA CORE is really good. You buy a premium TV and at least you get something for free. About support... How long they will support it, I think it will depend on how many TVs they will sell.
@luke covill If that was a typo, they wouldn't have written MB/s 6 times. The person who wrote that piece doesn't know the difference between bit and byte.
People look too much at the average bitrate but what's important is the bursts. Is the headroom there when you need it? .eg.intense scene on disc can top 150mbps with buffer over run.
It’s definitely the clear winner with comparing to other streaming services when it comes to picture quality especially since it offers imax enhanced versions of movies. Still don’t understand why they didn’t include atmos studio though.
I watched blade runner 2049 on Netflix and on core and i simple feel like core comes close to disc as the sound and quality is certainly a big improvement. The opening sequence in that movie has huge bass and the Netflix misses it, the dialouges is crisp and clear on core even at low volume, so core is certainly worth it for sony owners for the sony contents.
I have the internet connection speed, no problem. However, I will not be giving up my physical media. I love Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. Also just as with my anime collection, sometimes it just feels better owning it. Awesome explanation though, much appreciated. 👍
Gigaclear (FULL FIBRE) are offering 900mbit download & upload speeds in my area for £79pm. How long before I can have an UHD stream higher than UHD disc? I'm guessing most will go for the 2nd (cheaper) option of 300Mbits for £49pm.
I don’t think I’d fork out for a brand new Sony TV solely because it has this service. Nothing can beat Ultra HD Blu-Ray for the moment and it’s unlikely that anything will for a long time. We’ll see how the Sony and Panasonic OLEDs compare though. You never know. The Sonys might blow the Panasonics out of the water in which case ...
Wonder if they finally bumped the onboard Ethernet port to 1Gbps. If it’s still 100Mbps I think it will be problematic. I can’t stream 4K from Plex very well because of 100Mb Ethernet port.
I see Bravia Core as a very nice temporary tech demo/experiment that uses full movies to show people the capabilities of their tv. Hopefully it will be technology that will set future standards or is licensed out. But yes, currently for best results 4K blu-ray is the way to go. (Though it is also frustrating to buy blu-rays in that not all studios release disks with Dolby Vision)
Blu Ray is HEVC at ~100 Mbps. 80 Mbps of whatever PureStream is could indeed be superior. The fact that they had to create a different processor for it indicates that the codec could be doing much of the heavy lifting (assuming this isn't just marketing lock-out).
While DTS is an inefficient codec, lossless audio is mostly a waste of space/bandwidth, and once you're using a modern lossy codec with sufficiently high bitrate (say, Dolby Digital Plus with at least 768 Kbps), most people actually cannot hear the difference. That comment about dynamic range is very unscientific coming from you, Vincent. If there is a hearable difference in dynamic range, it comes from a different mixing step, different metadata config of the track, or bad configuration of the decoder, not from the lossy codec. Here is an article from when lossless audio was the last shiny tech, describing a test in Dolby's own codec testing lab using very expensive equipment and treated room that hardly anyone at home can hope to match, in which professional reviewers trained in audio comparisons weren't able to differentiate lossless and DD+, and only one of them was able to differentiate lossless and 640 Kbps DD: www.hemagazine.com/node/Dolby_TrueHD_DTS-MA_versus_Uncompressed_PCM/ Studios use lossless audio on Blu-rays only because they have plenty of space and because it's a successful marketing idea among consumers that they can know for sure the audio is lossless, but practically it doesn't matter.
@@speedstyle. Average tells you a lot.. as that measure accounts for wired desktops and servers at a random time of the day. Now imagine peak hours with domestic wifi.
@@4rzaluz What I was trying to say was that the average can be very skewed: if a hundred people have 10Mbps speeds but one has 1Gbps, then the average is 20Mbps. 20Mbps isn't representative of the population, so we should use better statistics. Whether you access your router over Ethernet or WiFi is irrelevant, I'm talking about the speed between your router and the internet. Servers are mostly in businesses and datacentres, not households.
Cool but the real question is, can you really spot the difference of 80Mbit and 30Mbit/s when watching a movie normally? Even the low bitrate from Netflix is hard to spot unless you directly compare it with a bluray or you sit 5cm in front of a 65" screen.
You can when you're used to watching Blu-rays. You may not notice that the streaming quality is really that bad when you're watching it, but when you pop in a disc you'll immediately think "wow this is much cleaner than anything I watch online/on TV". This is especially the case with motion or darker scenes.
This is just getting messy as each year passes. First we had oled vs qled tvs then hdr10 vs dolby vision now its streaming which we all know will never be as good as physical media due to broadband speeds
The fine print is listed in megabytes per second; up to 113MB/s. Thats gigabit speeds. Let's assume it's a typo and they meant 113Mbps that's up there with 4K blu-rays burst speeds. As long as their videos are H.265 and good 2 pass encodes I see no reason why their claims are not accurate.
Hello Vincent. I watch your channel very often and I enjoy watching it. Sony says you need 115MB/s but thats Byte and not Bit, internet speed is noted in Bites so you wil need 115x8= 920Mb/s internet connection. I think there is a mistake in the tekst on the site of Sony. Greetings from Holland.
One thing is HDTVTest should highlight - Bravia Core use IMAX Enhanced which means it is going to use IMAX's DMR HDR format instead of Dolby Vision. It is the same for audio. IMAX mandate DTS as base core layer of audio. IMAX Enhance processing can be engaged in flagship AV amp such as Denon AVC-X8500H. But of course it is disappointing for not using lossless codec DTS Master Audio. But I guess it is a bandwidth concern. DTS-MA @ 7.1 24/96 resolution may require nearly 30Mbps for audio signal alone!
the problem is often not the bit rate, its how the algo deals with near black and black where compression pulls data away, 80 will be more than enough to deal with these issues as very little compression will be required, if at all in most scenes.
This Sony Bravia Core thing will not last. Especially with so many streaming options out there with bigger catalog of titles. This is a money grab by Sony plain and simple. Give me physical disc over streaming anyday. I have the Sony X950H and nothing I see from Sony wants me to upgrade to their new 2021 sets. Good video Vincent.
I watched my first Bravia Core movie last night. It had the best picture and sound of any of the streaming services that I have tried. I purchased a Bravia 9 TV. It came with 10 movie credits to be used within 24 months.
@Multidimensional Entity « your provider wouldn’t let it happen » why ? « It would mean making bigger discs » what disc ? It depends on how you define « better ».
Streaming quality is still TRASH when downloading for offline viewing such as the Netflix app on phones and tablets. It doesn't compete with 4K Blu-ray discs nor 4K Remux files.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M That's because offline files are simply maximized to not take up storage data and limit amount of bandwith streamers need to allocate. People do not want 50-100GB files clogging up their storage space.
How many bit are the sound on ultra HD blu-ray. is it 16 or 20 or 24 bit .or is it different depending on whether it is a movie or if it is an example is classical music like Beethoven
I am not sure. I have a Sony X700 UHD BP and an Apple 4K. I don’t see any difference between my 4K discs and my Apple TV 4K iTunes movies in terms of picture quality.
@@Adam-vx6to LG OLED B7 and I have almost 60 4K discs. I did a lot of tests between two devices with the same contents. No sir I see no difference at all.
Isn't the bitrate comparison only valid for same file encoding ? Can we imagine a better quality encoding with better compression that would require less bitrate vs more processing power ?
They would need a newer codec that is much better than the one used on discs. Currently it is the same so they can't "encode better". They could match discs with a codec that would be at least 2x better and using 50 Mbps, but it won't happen until VVC (H.266)
There are people who once long ago ordered broadband and then have not changed their subscription or who have the cheapest subscription. and they might be watching the movie Via the cable TV operator's play channels in the TV box. which does not go through the broadband subscription
here in Sweden Has many broadband via fiberglass and cable TV networks. it can also be included in the rent and then the most common speed is probably 100mbit. Broadband via ADSL is today rare in Sweden
The only good thing about the bravia xr is that it's free. Rest honestly i can't tell the difference between Dolby vision and hdr And i find it really hard to tell the difference between high and low bit rates after sometime. Both can be because i have never compared them side by side but who does that?
Wrong my friend my X950G has that because when I bought it I received 4 free movies from sony streaming 4K Imax enhanced bright image sound DTS scale picture and content premium Imaxenhanced.com
That's probably not necessary with Bravia Core as these titles are designed to run only on specific Sony TVs. I would think they are already optimized.
I'll always buy 4K Blu rays. Even shows I really like, I buy them on Blu ray (4K if available), then sell them on EBay. (Walking Dead, Netflix's Lost in Space, Black List, etc etc ). I hope The Mandalorian comes to UHD Blu ray. Watching a 4K blu ray on the upcoming Sony A90J.....can't wait. And looking forward to the UHD Blu ray of Godzilla and Gravity coming out in March.
That is less than half the wholesale price for a 3rd the speed in the UK - Though thank goodness unlimited is standard practice for most internet connections in the UK as Videogames really eat into that & if we had data limits like they have more often in America it would make downloading games unworkable.
Guess what Germany the awesome country is so behind in things like internet and mobile internet... For 100MBps u pay like 35€/ month haha and in some smaller towns you will get like maximum 2MBps
UHD resolution has about 8.3 million pixels. On a 10-bit panel, the maximum bitrate the display can use should be 83 Mbit/s, shouldn‘t it? Can you explain why a 100 Mbit/s bitrate improves the image quality?
so in the main page of the service it says 80mps which megabit but in the fine print at the bottom of the page it says 80MB/s which MegaByte this looks like a mistake.
Mbps is MEGABITS and not MEGABYTES.... 80Mbps are 80.000 kbits Bitrate Blu Ray as an mkv for example always has like 10.000 kbits. 1 Megabyte is 0.125 Megabits... Unbelieveable how many get this wrong
The small print says 'MB/s' which is technically Megabytes, so the required internet speed of 115MB/s is actually approx 920 Megabits per second. How many people have a gigabit connection?
I pay 15 quid for 1 gig in the UK, and my provider can provide me with up to 10 Gbit/s (G.Network) however the problem is that high speed providers aren't that common outside of the major cities and their coverage is limited even within them. Romania isn't that different, good luck getting even decent DSL outside of the big cities especially in the north / north east, and Romania had the "luxury" of essentially having to lay down their telecom infrastructure in the late 90's early 2000's from scratch.
I agree with you vincent specially on the HDR and Sound department. Hopefully they will add it in the future. Or hopefully a other company will offer something like that. Until that time i will keep buying my favorite movies on disk.
I’m watching this in Sept 2023 and just purchased the X90L and it says I get the Bravia core for 12 months, so I’m assuming Sony decided to continue with this service
Eventually most people will have gigabit or more. At least continental Europe making good progress. Big Asian cities have been there for a while. Unfortunately the U.S. and others just have shitty legislation and monopoly issues regarding internet access.
How does it make it superior just because it’s free ? lol we’re talking in terms of quality of video & audio , Netflix is cheaper then buying blu rays so does that make Netflix superior to 4K discs ? No.
Assuming you are getting internet through multi mode or single mode fibre the cable itself can easily support 1 to 10 Gb so any limit that causes an issue here is an artificially one created by the ISP. As for the point about audio that is a very valid one. The lossless DTS and Dolby options are a must even if you are using a high end stereo system.
When 90Mbps is max that I have seen at original frame rate at24 FPS. This is original content burnt on 4k UHD 80gb of data with menus, sound tracks etc. is recorded with. Why do we then need 48Gpbs cables? is is purely due to higher FPS or there is something else in this calculation? or even 18gbps cable for that matter of fact? - Thanks!
Same here in regards to internet service. I'm currently running at 60 megs, in my area last year I was suppose to have 1 gig service. I'm hoping maybe this year they'll offer the 1 gig service in my area crossing my fingers.
PsVue was a great streaming service that Sony did zero marketing for and that's why it's No longer. The name sucked as well. I expect this to fail just like Vue.
Hopefully Openreach get to your area with FTTP - my street was upgraded Oct 2020 and I'm in East Manchester but I'm stuck waiting for the final install phase due to the current lockdown. At £500pcm for a gigabit leased line, it'd probably be cheaper actually to move to a new house with FTTP lol.
It's not like they are expecting it to succeed or anything. As Vincent said, it's just an add-on, an incentive to buy Sony 2021 TVs. It's not a serious push for streaming (it will be widely available if it was the case). Sony Pictures CEO stated that they are not interested in joining the streaming wars, at least for now. They will keep licensing their hit shows such as The Boys or The Crown to whatever pays more.
@@PSYCHOV3N0M Yes, Sony Pictures Television is indeed the Producer of The Crown, The boys, Cobra Kai, and Better Call Saul, among others. It's pretty safe to assume that they own the rights for the IPs and the shows with a license accorded to the streamers for a given period of time.

@@xintimidate It's the same quality, but of course you'll be the person on earth who can make the difference between an 80 Mbps movie and a 95 Mbps movie. Yep... That's like having a blu ray with 8Mbps and one with 12 Mbps... You would see exactly ZERO difference.
Even if you could watch both films at the same time, if you had two TVs next to each other, you would not be able to tell which version is the one with the higher Bitrate.
@@Mister__Jey I love how youre telling me whether or not I would tell the difference you dont know me. Dont pretend you do. Youre naive if you believe it will hold a constant 80Mbps. Especially with most peoples internet connections now in days. On top of that discs have far superior sound quality he even explained that in the video but of course you probably didnt watch the video and decided to comment anyways. If you did watch the video thats a reflection to your comprehension skills. Same people that said you wouldn't notice a difference between 25mbps and 4k blu ray were wrong just like they are now. The difference wouldnt be 80mpbs vs 4k blu ray which can get over 100mpbs it will more than likely be 40-50mpbs vs 4k blu ray.
@@xintimidate I don't have to know you, because NO ONE can tell the difference between a the same movie with 80Mbps Bitrate or with 90Mbps...
But just think BELIEVE that you could find out the difference, and that it would be so significant that it really matters 😂👍
Always the same people as you, they think. They have the total clue and know everything better, and in reality they have no clue at all, as you just proved with your answer.
And the lowest internet speed I get from my provider is 50Mbps... The lowest... There is a 100, 250, 500 and 1000Mbps package... And if you don't live in a village with 500 inhabitants, almost everyone has access to these internet speeds.
But the thing with the sound is very interesting, because for the internet speed you have to pay 5 € more so that you get the appropriate internet speed to stream the 80 Mbps. But to get the FAR SUPERIOR sound, you need an appropriate sound system and AV receiver that costs significantly more to purchase... When 70% of all TV user just use there TV speakers and don't even have a simple soundbar
And if you're not watching the film in the original English anyway, you'll usually get the worse audio output anyway.
This has always been a problem when movies are released on optical stores.
Regarding the XR Processor, is there a possibility that their streams are in AV1 and not in HEVC?
That would explain why the older TVs cannot decode the stream, also that would mean that the picture quality should be very similar to HEVC Blu-Rays.
It comes bundled with the TV, it will be significantly better quality than other streaming services. It’s a pretty nice add-on for free IMO. Ultra-HD Blu-Rays might be technically better, but they are costly, are disks and not readily available, but glad there is the option for them. Thank you for the video 👍🏻

Even if the quality of streaming would surpass physical discs I would still get my favorite movies/tv shows on discs. I'm free to watch them how and when I want with a constant picture quality. With streaming you're never sure what you get and if their servers or ISP have problems you're f*ked.
Am sure most of those wouldn't play on my side of the world so I'll keep downloading those large RIPs.
Just to add I'm not anti-streaming. Just that I prefer discs for obvious reasons. But it's nice to see innovation and evolution of streaming tech and services. More (and better quality) choices is always good.
Streaming will never ever ever surpass physical disks quality
Bravia core probably will eventually.
Considering the most likely scenario: the streamed content is the content of a 4K UHD blu-ray stored on a server ... the theoretical absolute maximum you can expect is the 1:1 blu-ray quality ... more likely any stream will always show an inferior quality due to several losses t.b. expected in the supply chain.

Wait... Are they saying you need 115MB/s in order to stream their 80Mbps? Why are they talking about Mbps and MB/s together? Big difference.
You are right. Glad someone noticed. I think sony made an error cant say if its deliberate but it should be 115mbps
@luke covill If that was a typo, they wouldn't have written MB/s 6 times. The person who wrote that piece doesn't know the difference between bit and byte.
People look too much at the average bitrate but what's important is the bursts. Is the headroom there when you need it? .eg.intense scene on disc can top 150mbps with buffer over run.
It’s definitely the clear winner with comparing to other streaming services when it comes to picture quality especially since it offers imax enhanced versions of movies. Still don’t understand why they didn’t include atmos studio though.
Disney+ has "IMAX-Enhanced" titles.
I watched blade runner 2049 on Netflix and on core and i simple feel like core comes close to disc as the sound and quality is certainly a big improvement. The opening sequence in that movie has huge bass and the Netflix misses it, the dialouges is crisp and clear on core even at low volume, so core is certainly worth it for sony owners for the sony contents.
I have the internet connection speed, no problem. However, I will not be giving up my physical media. I love Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. Also just as with my anime collection, sometimes it just feels better owning it. Awesome explanation though, much appreciated. 👍

I don’t think I’d fork out for a brand new Sony TV solely because it has this service. Nothing can beat Ultra HD Blu-Ray for the moment and it’s unlikely that anything will for a long time.

Wonder if they finally bumped the onboard Ethernet port to 1Gbps. If it’s still 100Mbps I think it will be problematic. I can’t stream 4K from Plex very well because of 100Mb Ethernet port.
I see Bravia Core as a very nice temporary tech demo/experiment that uses full movies to show people the capabilities of their tv. Hopefully it will be technology that will set future standards or is licensed out. But yes, currently for best results 4K blu-ray is the way to go. (Though it is also frustrating to buy blu-rays in that not all studios release disks with Dolby Vision)

Blu Ray is HEVC at ~100 Mbps. 80 Mbps of whatever PureStream is could indeed be superior. The fact that they had to create a different processor for it indicates that the codec could be doing much of the heavy lifting (assuming this isn't just marketing lock-out).
No Dolby Vision, No lossless audio.
My 4K Remux files will take a shit on Bravia Core streaming quality.
Upto 80 mbs means upto only so realistically it will be much lower. Bluray will always be better!!
I’ve got 2 mbps internet download speed so I don’t care
While DTS is an inefficient codec, lossless audio is mostly a waste of space/bandwidth, and once you're using a modern lossy codec with sufficiently high bitrate (say, Dolby Digital Plus with at least 768 Kbps), most people actually cannot hear the difference.
That comment about dynamic range is very unscientific coming from you, Vincent. If there is a hearable difference in dynamic range, it comes from a different mixing step, different metadata config of the track, or bad configuration of the decoder, not from the lossy codec.
Here is an article from when lossless audio was the last shiny tech, describing a test in Dolby's own codec testing lab using very expensive equipment and treated room that hardly anyone at home can hope to match, in which professional reviewers trained in audio comparisons weren't able to differentiate lossless and DD+, and only one of them was able to differentiate lossless and 640 Kbps DD: www.hemagazine.com/node/Dolby_TrueHD_DTS-MA_versus_Uncompressed_PCM/
Studios use lossless audio on Blu-rays only because they have plenty of space and because it's a successful marketing idea among consumers that they can know for sure the audio is lossless, but practically it doesn't matter.
Yeah, and that's why unless their streaming service is using Dolby Atmos, then it's nothing special.

Cool but the real question is, can you really spot the difference of 80Mbit and 30Mbit/s when watching a movie normally? Even the low bitrate from Netflix is hard to spot unless you directly compare it with a bluray or you sit 5cm in front of a 65" screen.
You can when you're used to watching Blu-rays. You may not notice that the streaming quality is really that bad when you're watching it, but when you pop in a disc you'll immediately think "wow this is much cleaner than anything I watch online/on TV". This is especially the case with motion or darker scenes.
This is just getting messy as each year passes. First we had oled vs qled tvs then hdr10 vs dolby vision now its streaming which we all know will never be as good as physical media due to broadband speeds
Broadband speeds and shit companies like Comcrap giving data caps. But they want to increase their fee's...even more.
The fine print is listed in megabytes per second; up to 113MB/s. Thats gigabit speeds.
Let's assume it's a typo and they meant 113Mbps that's up there with 4K blu-rays burst speeds.
As long as their videos are H.265 and good 2 pass encodes I see no reason why their claims are not accurate.

Hello Vincent. I watch your channel very often and I enjoy watching it. Sony says you need 115MB/s but thats Byte and not Bit, internet speed is noted in Bites so you wil need 115x8= 920Mb/s internet connection. I think there is a mistake in the tekst on the site of Sony. Greetings from Holland.
I'm just here to listen to his voice.
One thing is HDTVTest should highlight - Bravia Core use IMAX Enhanced which means it is going to use IMAX's DMR HDR format instead of Dolby Vision.
It is the same for audio. IMAX mandate DTS as base core layer of audio. IMAX Enhance processing can be engaged in flagship AV amp such as Denon AVC-X8500H. But of course it is disappointing for not using lossless codec DTS Master Audio. But I guess it is a bandwidth concern. DTS-MA @ 7.1 24/96 resolution may require nearly 30Mbps for audio signal alone!
the problem is often not the bit rate, its how the algo deals with near black and black where compression pulls data away, 80 will be more than enough to deal with these issues as very little compression will be required, if at all in most scenes.
Vincent, What player were you using on video? I like the info shown mbps, etc.
It’s all a moot question when there are ISPs that only stream at about 30.
This Sony Bravia Core thing will not last. Especially with so many streaming options out there with bigger catalog of titles. This is a money grab by Sony plain and simple. Give me physical disc over streaming anyday. I have the Sony X950H and nothing I see from Sony wants me to upgrade to their new 2021 sets. Good video Vincent.
Very informative. Thank you
