I'm finally going to get to watch 4k TV in my living room tonight...so what are the first must watches so I can sell my wife on this expensive purchase we just made?
I know for Netflix I will need to upgrade our account and I plan to do that.
Any YouTube vids I should check out right away?
Any other 4k sources that are live right now and don't require a significant purchase or sign up?
Depending on the screen size and distance 4k will offer very little benefit. A foot away it's amazing, but on the couch there's almost no difference.
I've been rocking Mi Box and 4k tv for a few days now myself. If you leave the resolution setting on auto (on Mi Box), 4k content won't be delivered from any services.
I'm still looking for more content myself, not seeing much on Netflix or at least an easy way to quickly identify it.
All of the Netflix original series shows are in 4k and are amazing, both is quality and content
Which 4k tv did you get?
May I recommend Longmire on Netflix, such a great show.
I'm in your boat as well, had to rush home to sign for the delivery from work. Will check it out when i get home... can't wait to watch my first 4k lol.
I got the Samsung 55KS8000 and have Nivdia Shield.
also keep in the mind there is an on-going issue that mi box is not compatible with youtube vids that are 4k 60hz (it will only display 1080p 60hz max), 4k 30fps does work fine though.
Pacific Rim and Mad Max: Fury Road both look AMAZING in 4K on Vudu. Those have impressed me the most. Some of Netflix 4K is good as well.
YouTube has the biggest selection of 4K content. Shameless plug for a video on my channel. The video below is a drone video tour of the beaches in Cancun.

I shoot exclusively in 4K.
