With tools like radarr the quality is usually what you want now a days but it takes up a lot of space so you have to pick and choose what's worth it

So if it’s going to take up space I’ll just rip the 4k disc directly and keep the menus, extras and know that I’m not transcoding it to keep the original quality.

Yeah I have no problem finding 1:1 Bluray rips but they're 30GB-100GB files, which adds up quick if you're starting a collection.
