I have a ton and probably do not get my money's worth in re-watching them, but there are quite a few titles which aren't available elsewhere (streaming), or come and go from other services.
For me, and probably most, the biggest benefit with these are the quality. 4k disc versus 4k/HD streaming just aren't the same. If you have a large OLED set and a Dolby Atmos setup, there's a huge difference from disc to digital, and that's what justifies the upgrade.
The same title will look and sound very different to someone who is into home theater. If you just want to watch a movie and don't really care about much else? Streaming is totally fine, blu-ray is totally fine and if it comes down to it, even DVD might be fine
Citizen Cane
Uncut Gems
Menace II Society
Mulholland Drive
Criterion on just started doing 4K this year, so there aren't many to choose from. Newest ones like Hard Days Night are still full price.
I wonder if Arrow Video, Cohen media and the other usuals will be added this year.
As an added bonus, some of the more popular titles are also price matched on Amazon in case that's your forte.

I got these in the past since they're the definitive HD transfers:
The Squid and the Whale
Pan's Labyrinth
Eraserhead
And some french foreign language films that aren't available through other publishers in the states:
Le Havre
Portrait of a Lady on Fire
