And for many streaming services, getting true 4K streams costs extra.

Otherwise they just feed you the 4K content but in lower resolution.

Or take your money but send you 720p anyway

Netflix is very kind in this area, when they say it's 4k, it's 3840x2160p 4k, but it also is just a 720p video with linear upscaling applied.
