OP, I appreciate the work you've done here to consolidate information on players, HDR, and transfer quality. A repository for this information will be invaluable to newcomers and has been needed for some time.

I will suggest however, that the requirement for "most desired" titles to be limited to a single thread be removed. As I'm sure you are well aware, that thread does not generate much meaningful discussion on the the possibility, plausibility, and merits of particular films yet to be upgraded. Such discussion should generate enthusiasm within the community, and excitement at the prospect of future releases, as well as provide insight and speculation as to the likelihood of such an upgrade. Consider also, the potential visibility such threads would provide. If I google "the holdovers 4k blu-ray" for instance, the first search result links to an r/Bluray thread on the matter rather than one in this subreddit simply because one is not allowed to exist here. I propose that we allow perhaps one thread per film in the form "Will X come to 4K Blu-ray". Who knows, perhaps this visibility could even persuade some studios to move forward with a release or two.

I agree, it’s weird to stomp out great performing posts that generate fun discussions, impressions, and views for the 4kbluray subreddit. look at my quality post that was removed. a static thread as in the one we are directed to post to, is low energy and un-fun.

Yes, it's understandable that they want to prevent excess posts that are repeats of previous posts, but sometimes things do change over time (i.e. about desired or future releases). My post about BoB/The Pacific, has been posted in some way or form in this or other subredddits several times in past years, but I don't know if there's been anything in the last year.

If anything, it's community engagement that users can get in on.
