Agreed. Streaming is wildly inappropriate for things like horror films where compression and macro blocking ruin the dark scenes. The bitrate of a 4k blu ray sometime peaks above 100MB/s, yet most streaming providers max out around 20MB/s. There will always be a place for the enthusiast who is willing to put up with a little hassle and higher cost for a better overall experience, and boutique blu ray sales have really taken off lately for this exact reason. This isn’t the death of physical media, but it might be the death of retail physical media. FWIW If you find yourself without a choice other than streaming, check Apple first. They offer the highest bitrate typically.
