-Prepare to join the world that mass market consumers have been living in for at least the past decade by joining them in patronizing streaming when it offers content that’s of interest to us.
No one really needs Blu-ray (let’s not even mention 4k) if all one wishes to do is watch a movie on a TV.
I'd like to do that, quite honestly, but streaming is uber-difficult for me to patronize/participate in, generally because of the content contained within the shows/films on streaming (such as foul language, violence and other objectionable content [don't get me wrong; there have been several films I have actually enjoyed in the modern day that have had such content, but those are a drop in the bucket compared to the majority of streaming films]).
I generally try to be supportive of any physical media collecting, but the other day a small group of members were insistent that there was absolutely no point to Blu-ray, because you can upconvert a DVD and it's the exact same thing, no difference at all. I tried to explain that, no, that's not how it works, and they got really indignant about it and dug in their heels, refusing to believe that Blu-ray offered anything better than DVD in any way.
