Well…technically GB =/= quality.
Different compressions will affext quality and aize differently.
But I guess “on average” more GB is gonna be better. So if it’s like 100GB vs 5GB yeah there will be a big difference.
A 10-15GB x265 and a 20-25gb x264? Less obvious answer.
Basically just start getting stuff and eventually you’ll see what you like more.
I hate banding and want every pimple on the actor visible so for me if I like a movie it’s remux central

file size and quality are correlated. however different encoders mean that you cannot compare different videos size directly as x264 takes twice as much bitrate as x265 for the same quality its the same with cpus, you cannot claim a 3ghz cpu will be faster than a 2ghz one because of architecture differences but the same 2ghz one overclocked to 3ghz will most likely see gains in performance
