In the future you will own nothing and be happy about it. First they took away all the disc drives and now they are getting rid of the disks to record onto.

I am also worried about access to high-bitrate movie/show content.

Streaming services have very well encoded videos, but it's easy to tell the difference between a BD video and streaming video.

The audio is noticeably worse on streaming as well. They seem to put very little effort into improving streaming audio formats. DD+ Atmos is nice(r) but it's still based on AC-3.
