How big is the difference between 4K disk and 4K digital? - eviltoast

For a long time I have bought the digital versions of movies off of iTunes and have more recently been expanding my physical collection. I’m curious, how big is the difference between the 4K digital version of a movie compared to the actual 4K disc? If I own the 4K digital version of a movie is there any reason to also pick up the disc version?

    With the physical version you should always be able to play it. In a few years you may not have something that’ll play digital media.

    Fixed it for you!

      You do know that physical media is going away right?

      If you have a bunch of blue ray discs and they stop making blue ray players what will you do?

      There will always be a way to play digital media.

          I believe it’s some kind of bot or person paid to spread FUD regarding buying physical instead of digital. If you check his/her account history it’s only active in the big streaming subreddits and nothing else.
