With 4K Blu-Ray's coming, it's marketshare will only rise. |
I think it will shift the balance to streaming and digital even more.. don't think many people will be happy to spend money again on a new blu ray player and new discs of the same movies.. not to mention a 4K TV..

Au contraire. 4K Blu-rays will, in my opinion, give Blu-Rays a much needed boost. Streaming or digitally storing 4K movies and series will take a hefty toll on people's internet bandwiths. 4K Blu-Rays will alleviate that problem for people who love movies, but don't have as good internet bandwiths. Also, movie enthousiasts will rather purchase digitally or use Blu-Rays due to streaming often displaying artifacts and potentially lessening your movie experiance.

There's something called a law of diminishing returns
DVD was very noticably superior to VHS
Blu_Ray was noticeably better than DVD
Blu Ray 4K is modestly better than Blu-Ray
There comes a time when the technological leaps just aren't that noticable and the public doesn't feel the need to buy into another new technology.Especially with older movies/TV shows filmed on older stock/ 4:3 or other format which won't noticably improve in the transition from blu ray to blu ray 4K.
