This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Then most people need get a better ISP. My crappy $60/mo fixed 5G can download an entire 4K film in under 10 minutes or start streaming it within a second. Y'all should see if there are any options beyond cable and DSL in your town. You might be pleasantly surprised what's available these days.
Is that not a compressed stream though? Genuinely asking. A 4k blu ray rip and a 4k stream from a service (or whatever it saves for offline viewing on an app) a pretty different. I think things are getting conflated with capturing live 4k television and capturing a 4k blu ray as it plays, which both might be using an HDMI cable.
I use Stremio and only stream full 4K Blu Ray rips, with HDR and Dolby Atmos and all. So nothing is recompressed. 50-70GB files but it starts streaming almost instantly.
I have a poor 5G signal due to a tree that's blocking my view of the antenna, so I get anywhere between 400Mbps and 1400Mbps (I'm supposed to get a gigabit but it's usually closer to 500). Even with a poor signal it's still way faster than any other ISP in my town.
