When Richard Winters walks through the baseball field at the end of Episode 10, the grain settles, the colors fade to sepia, and the voices of the real veterans come through crisp and clean. That emotional gut-punch is only possible if the technology gets out of the way. CtrlHD understood that philosophy perfectly.
Furthermore, the 4K version of Band of Brothers has been met with controversy. The 4K release often uses DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) and edge sharpening that scrubs away the film grain, giving the actors a waxy, unnatural appearance. Many purists argue that the 1080p Blu-ray (and by extension, the CtrlHD rip of that disc) is the superior visual presentation because it respects the original cinematographic intent.
