Native 4K or Checkerboard "uprendered" 4k

4k Blu-Ray is still pretty new, not many companies are selling it anywhere, regardless of country you are in.
That should change in time though, perhaps by then the PS5 will arrive with 4k Blu Ray support, you seem to be an early adopter of tech anyway, so I doubt it's much of a concern.
I have already started to make the transition to 4k Blu-Rays now and jump on any bargains I see with films. :)

I just don't get the draw.... 

I have a pair of 2TB HDDs, and for under $200 I'm upgrading that to a pair of 5TB HDDs. I can download a 4k movie, usually average between 25GB and 40GB in 1-2hrs max 3hrs (I've got a 55Mb (NOT MB) connection). Between that and Kodi and having my entire mobie collection in a jukebox style complete with fan art, trailers, thumbnails and everything else that comes with a Kodi experience, it's hard to understand why anyone would still want to use discs..... 

My only gripe is that it's hardfinding legal ways to download 4k movies. It ususlly involves you having to buy the physical disc anyways and also get a digital copy or you just stream them. Hell it's like everyone wants you to stream these days. 

Unfortunately I am limited by last century copper twisted pair infrustructure, I only have ADSL 2+ with Annex M modulation, with a speed of roughly 10Mbps down/2Mbps up.
These 10's of Gigabytes worth of downloads are painfull. Did you know I have over a Terabytes worth of Updates, DLC and Games waiting to download on my Xbox One? :P
My Steam Library is just as bad...

I'm not allergic to going digital, just the infrustructure doesn't exist where I am for it to be entirely feasible, especially when my line is being used for hosting/server stuff and other household users.
