Hello just making a poll, which one do you prefer? personally I prefer x265 but since the rarbg falldown i've seen that almost all 1080p rips are in x264, what do you think about that, and do you recommend any place to find more x265 content beside those in the megathread?

x264 is still popular because lots of active devices (mainly TVs and smartphones) still don't have native support for x265.

Remember how long DivX/XviD hung on for, it's all down to device compatibility.
