Is there a way to change the bandwidth required on Apple TV streaming? Netflix has 3 different levels. Apple has only one. It pull too much data . All I get is buffering.

Streaming Video quality Apple TV+ Sorry if this is the wrong forum but I was unable to find an Apple TV Plus listing. My question if fairly straight forward. Can you set Apple TV Plus to send content in standard definition? I have some limits on my Internet data monthly. My wife and I watched two episodes of The Morning Show and got an email alert that I was near my data cap as the two shows consumed 2.3 Gigabytes of data. Not everybody can use High Def and prefer a lower resolution. I know you can set resolution on iTunes, but there doesn't seem to be any option with Apple TV+. If I cannot get Lower Def content then I won't be able to use my free 1-year Apple TV+ account. Thanks
