Cost of UHD Blu Ray - Is MS subsidizing Xbone S, or is Sony just milking it?

I believe this is a case of Sony trying to push 4k streaming (as part of a deal with the likes of Netflix). The grumbles of "patching UHD in later" may be false unofficial damage control or Sony knows they can have their cake and eat it too.

Why? over 80% of the 4k televisions have 4k streaming build in to the television, more power effecient, easier with the TV remote, streaming services are not something you need a console for anymore.

Streaming from an external device that polishes the image and sound gives it a better quality/experience I guess. But the PS4 isn't known for image refining, like a dedicated blu ray player does.
