When did you EVER buy a 4K Blu-ray Film?

Then why are 4K blu-ray players so damn expensive?

Because it's the typical price gouging electronics manufacturers always make consumers go through (ie: DVD was $1000 at launch, Blu-Ray was $600+, etc.).

The drive itself is only like $15 bucks more. Ask yourself how Microsoft is able to put it in the XBox One S with basically no price increase. It's because the drive doesn't cost much. 

So basically they'll be really cheap in a year.  So when people say the scorpio will save them spending $300 on a standalone player it's a ridiculous statement.
