There are a lot of videos that I'd like to watch in UHD and/or HDR but there is no streaming service that provides them. Why is that? Why do they not release them in UHD? The cameras they are shooting it with are more than cappable of providing UHD.

Another way I think about this; Many people have 1080p displays on their devices. So simply no need to download media content, that exceed these specifications. Just waste of resources with further annoying complications.
