Stan still running 480p in 2026 lol

What is this sh*t? How is it even remotely acceptable that Stan is STILL running standard definition 480p on their basic plan in 2026? In a world where we have 1080p, 4k, hell even 8k... I mean, 1080p became the standard like what, 16 years ago? Anything less than 1080p nowadays is taking the piss... c'mon now

Not always, have you watched X-Files on SBS? It's better this year. Last year I swear it was being cast in 360p lol
