Do you have a separate 4k library? (lemmy.ml)

A new TV offers the possibility to watch 4k movies to me. I am thinking about upgrading my library but I'm not sure if I want to replace my 1080 collection. I've read that some use a separate 4k library.

Do you? How do you deal with it? I mostly add movies with trakt and radarr automatically. Do you use separate accounts?

I've replaced all my media with 4K remuxes, when available, 1080p remuxes otherwise, unless it's a movie I'm only getting by request, then I might get an encode. Felt good to wash away all the 1080p and especially 720p stuff. 4K with HDR makes a HUGE difference. A lot of the time the picture has been remastered (maybe the for the first time, maybe more) and is exclusive to the UHD. Also, you often get upgraded with Dolby Atmos or DTS:X tracks, which rule.
