The television/monitor I use is a Samsung 32" it does up to 1080p but I only download 720p unless 1080p is the lowest option.
I bought my nephews a Samsung 55" 4K television to go with their XB1 X, they swear there's a huge difference but this past weekend, they were out of town, so I tried it with both video games and porn. I don't see a big enough difference in either to justify the file size difference. I'm down to two 4TB My Passport external hard drives that are powered through the USB and have 1 older external also 4TB that has to be plugged into power that I keep in a closet as a backup. I also have two externals that are plugged into my PS4 and XB1.
The 4K porn files I watched were 17 minutes and 23 minutes each. Their size ranged from 9GB to 13GB, the 720p versions of those were 660MB and 923MB. I just can't see that trade off in size for what is only a negligible difference to my vision.

I agree with exotics, above. While I download a lot of 1080p stuff I'm usually just as happy with 720p. I watch porn mostly on a 24" monitor, with a 32" TV and a 50" TV coming in second and third. For me the trade-off of file size versus usually lands with 720p. Like exotics, I really can't tell the difference with higher resolutions.

To view true 4k there is a setting that must be turned on in the settings of the TV, it's the HDR or high Dynamic Range and then it makes a HUGE difference on my 55" 4k tv. A lot of sites offer 4k but they are normally just resized hd, true 4k are rare. I don't see any difference on say naughty Americas 4k stuff but exotic4k oh hell yes there's a difference.

Part of this is probably because you haven't heard me complain about my vision. I grew up in LA in the 90s, all around the bloods/crips gang war. When I was a teenager, I was stabbed just above my eye. I was okay but that was 20+ years ago. My eyesight is still okay too but there's a slight blur on any screen I look at. That blur seems to take away the visual differences between 4K and 1080p. One of the games I tried it on, Tomb Raider, was supposed to be one of the easiest to notice differences on and I did see small differences but I haven't been able to make out the differences my nephews see. It's why I have a PS4 Slim and Xbox One S and bought them a PS4 Pro and Xbox One X. This also goes into any talk of VR. My eyes go crazy when trying to focus on VR games or movies. To even further the experience I have with my vision, I don't like televisions or monitors bigger than 32". And those curved televisions make me motion sick. All of that has something to do with the eye injury and how my eyes process colors and movements.

720, because for me it's a good compromise between quality and filesize.
I don't have a finite amount of storage, so I am really picky about things over 1gb. 720 seems to be good enough quality for my laptop monitor, but doesn't use up too much of my hard drive space.

1080 as I make DVDs out of my downloads so I can watch them on my HD television.

For a long time I'd download 720p content rather than the 1080p version, unless the scene was a partcular fave, in which case I'd DL the 1080p version. At the time I was storing my stuff on old hard drives which were quite small but these days I'm upgrading my drives and using the fairly large "old" ones to store porn.

I'm not picky. I have plenty of 480p videos and I am quite happy with the quality but I usually look for 540p or 720p. I avoid high definition stuff as I honestly don't see the point. In fact HD has in many ways made scenes that I'm sure I would have once enjoyed unwatchable because all the various skin imperfections that were easy to overlook in lower resolution are front in center in HD.

I find HD is the best compromise between quality and size of file for a really good scene. Anything bigger than HD is huge, now I have a fast connection the download speed isn't an issue but finding room for it on my hard drive is.
Sometimes though I'll still go with 720 if it's not one of my absolute favourites. Still decent quality and a useful file size saving.
Still even 480 looks decent enough to me!

Depends on the quality of the material. I usually DL 1080 but sometimes 720. For VR, I download the 1920x1080 resolution as the larger ones (2300x1080) create really huge files and don't always work properly.

Always 1080p for me. The 2160p/4k downloads are too large and I don't have any device with a 4k screen anyhow so I wouldn't see the difference.
