Is there much 4K content on FreeView and FreeSat these days?
Long and complicated story which I won't bore you with.
Anyway I am in the market for a new TV of about 40" (perhaps more).
Most these days seem to be 4K.

Oh, and I would still need a PVR - are there any good FreeSat PVRs which
do 4K?

None. Although I doubt if you will find a TV from any of the main manufactures that isn't 4K.

All the content at the chosen location will be free to air, (although I suppose there could be network content).
As an aside we are thinking of ditching Virgin Media Tivo because we now
get most of our content over the Internet.
So should I focus on streaming not free to air?

Assuming of course positive responses re 4K over FreeSat!
Cheers

$ky do 4k over satellite, but you have to pay.
Quite a lot of 4k content free on YouTube.

Say, I've got the typical post-70s layout of a living room, where the TV
is sat in a corner - instead of dominating the whole space square-on as
a cinema screen.
4k on iPlayer from time to time.
Gold - for example.
The 42" was pretty good, but having seen larger screens elsewhere, when we upgraded to 4k 2018 we opted for a 55" screen.

a cinema screen.
of a flat screen TV she was persuaded that it was actually smaller than
the front of her 21 inch CRT set which not only had a large speaker
grill but a large area on the front for all the control knobs and
buttons and bezel surrounding the CRT of a 2 to 3 inches.
The CRT set also had to be set out from the corner owing to the depth of
the CRT set. The replacement 40 inch flat panel actually fitted into the corner a bit further back.

Initially 40 inch and in the past few years a 55 inch screen. What I
noticed most was the improvement in the overall quality of the picture especially in normal daylight viewing conditions (QLED).
Although the 55 inch is bigger than the 43 inch the overall size not by much. My 40 had a very wide bezel whereas my 55 inch has a thin
minimalist bezel
