With prices for premium streaming services soaring higher, grab a good 4K Blu-ray player while you still can
. We’ll cover those in detail below, as well as list other good reasons for you to splurge on a 4K Blu-ray player.Even with the dominance of streaming, both new and catalog movies alike continue to be released on Blu-ray by major studios and independent publishers. These range from single-disc versions to deluxe ones with artful packaging and loads of extra features to browse through.
The reason for this is that studios look to Blu-ray as an ongoing source of revenue for their movie libraries. It’s the same rationale that music labels have for continuing to release albums on compact disc even as music streaming has become the norm, as well as license their catalogs to smaller niche labels for release on the vinyl LP format. Neither of those formats is going away anytime soon, and the same holds true for both regular and 4K Blu-ray disc.
Along with better picture quality, Blu-ray discs provide superior audio quality to what you get from streaming services. That’s because streaming services use the Dolby Digital Plus format for audio, Atmos soundtracks included, which uses lossy compression . Soundtracks on Blu-ray disc, in contrast, use the Dolby True HD or DTS:X formats, both of which use lossless compression .3.
