A lot of “alternative sources” are BluRay or even 4K Bluray rips. Of course there oftentimes also are Prime Video or Netflix rips but that just depends on availability. Usually there’s a choice. You can also download rips that are more compressed than Netflix would ever be but if you’re out for quality you just don’t download those unless there’s nothing better available.
But isn’t the “alternatively sourced” a rip from Amazon prime?
But indeed on my Android tv if I use Amazon prime most of times it decides to use 720p with a low bitrate
