Funny that they're marketing the supposed advantages of higher bitrates using pictures with altered contrast and saturation lol. I would expect the target audience to be somewhat affluent in the actual benefits? Then again, I wouldn't expect somebody like Scorsese to be a video compression nerd.
Also the whole "you can hear more with lossless audio" is just straight up a lie.
Pricing, if I am reading the site correctly: $7k-ish for a server (+$ for local disks, one assumes), $2-5k per client. So you download the movie locally to your server and play it on clients scattered throughout your mansion/property.
Not out of the world for people who drop 10s of thousands on home theater.
I wonder if that's what the Elysium types use in their NZ bunkers.
No true self-respecting, self-described techie (Scotsman) would use it instead of building their own of course.

This has been more or less proven to be a complete scam, the quality isn’t any better than Blu-ray and in many cases worse.
The “best” quality of streaming you have is Sony Core https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Pictures_Core but it has a rather limited library.
"Not any better than Blu-ray" is the same as saying "much better than streaming."
I think there are a few examples where the bitrate is higher than a native rip however.
Fascinating.

For the less affluent you can setup a Jellyfin media server and rip your own blu-rays with makemkv.
