It's a sweet deal but it is not groundbreaking as that medium is already dying. Being able to play 4k hdr video digitally I'd a must and if you can throw in the drive then sure do it. But 4k blu ray and blu ray in general isn't a burning hot industry. Most people consume 4k content digitally.

I agree to an extent and Im certainly digital only, I will remain consistent on that. But demand clearly exists otherwise sony and samsung wouldnt have spent millions developing and launching SUHD HDR players (That now cost more than an xbox one S). Hell, on here everyone screams blue murder about digital only, but I guess that will change now too. Funny.

You also have to remember you can't use this site as a representative sample due to the high levels of Nintendo and low levels of Xbox support.
Of course they're going to make them to support the medium as it exists as people will buy them but their profit and sales expectations cannot be sky high. Its a shame Sony us charging an ungodly amount of money for their 4k movie service.
Whenever I buy a 4k TV it'll be used for 4k netflix/prime, yYouTube and maybe some gaming if I get a new GPU.
If it was the DVD era where DVDs were massive and everyone wanted one, having the first affording DVD player in your system would be groundbreaking but I can't see jt making much of an impact or being used as much as 4k netflix.
