I am thoroughly enjoying all these comments. But 4k Blu rays are visually, audibly, and aurally superior to streaming. That said, I have seen and heard some pretty darn good rips of 4k stuff, so I'm not even sure anymore. I may or may not own numerous hard drives containing a large PLEX library as well as a sizeable collection of my favorite repeat watchers on 4k Blu ray.

Shit, Id argue DVD with a good scaler is better than streaming

Have to agree. I have a PS3 still plugged in only because it can upscale DVDs really well.
