4k/8k - HDR - Surround - Content

I'm quite new in home theater and Im I was surprised how the sellers pushing all the ;''' 4k, hdr10 atmos''' thing and there's not much available.

- yes; netflix, disney , google, amazon, hbo; got 4k, but the sound track are rarely (see almost never) in surround .

Plus , you need to get all those provider (100$+cad/month) to get your favorite show (this will increase piracy for sure, just like the mid90' with all specialize channels...)

- popcorn time, no thanks, low quality stuff and always in 2ch, some times 5.1

- not into torrent much, Id like to pay to get quality, but even that, there's almost nothing ! at least nothing to enjoy the 3 big things : uhd, hrd, and over 5.1 ch , atmos or dtsX.

- A friend of I shared his PLex server, he rip his own bluray, and even that he only have few 8ch movies and 0x hdr, 2x 4k.

So from my understanding, the only option left is Blurays ?
Why all this hype, if most people can't enjoy the full potential of their home theater? uhd hrd and surround is quite 'old', tech speaking.
