High resolution Milky Way HDRI or background image, willing to pay

It’s not just about resolution and pixel count… most JPGs have 8-bit depth, where HDRIs usually have 32-bit depth. In other words, you can get significantly more information into one pixel with a true HDRI than a compressed JPG. You can see the difference by lowering brightness. True HDRI whites coming from a light source stay bright as everything gets dark. Compressed whites dim at the same rate as other pixels.
