same reason you should have at least 2 tv antennas around the house! if your internet is down for a week you need to learn how to survive and not turn into a southpark episode searching for "internets".

No, streaming is not as good in quality, and anything bought on stream can be lost when you die, streamer loses rights to stream, and you cannot sell it, but that is the way of the world.
Maybe when 8k comes out, no one will notice on TV or projector the lost quality.
It's good to stream here and there, but you don't actually own the item and when you are gone, so is it too.
Bluray can be handed down to anyone at anytime.
Even DVDs are being left to people and actually some upscale pretty good for watching on a laptop. But as people get older, they leave behind $$$ of digital content that is gone.
I guess you could keep a person's email forever and keep their Vudu account going forever?
I wonder if Vudu would stop that after 100 years or at some limit.
Might become a problem down the road.

In fact, ironically it echoes my college pirating days where when you started a movie: it just starts. No bullshit ads for other movies, fed warnings, all of it. Click and play.
I truly get where people are coming from with physical and owning your movies but the other side of the fence is actually pretty great. Since switching my library over I even made a ton of cash offloading rare steels and lot sales. I also only pay $2 for HD titles via D2D and $5 is my buy price for 4K. That adds up and I'd imagine I've saved a few thousand by now by comparison to my physical days.
In the end, it's personal preference but I would challenge anyone in the same position to try it. I've found that since swapping I've actually never had an issue where a physical disc would have made a difference (excluding quality). Good luck!
Not sure what I'm missing on UHD movie discs with a ps5/xsx

For me, Physical Media > DRM-Free Digital Downloads >> Streaming

The problem with blu-ray compare to DVD is the physical disc is much easier to get damage. Pretty much people holding the disc need to take good care of it or else a little scratched and you can no longer play the Blu-ray disc. While DVD can take a lot more "damage" before it is not playable. I assume 4k disc is even worst. As an example, if your library carry Blu-Ray/DVD movies that you can borrow and many people borrow them, I notice for DVD, even 10 years old DVD with many scratch on the disc, you can still play it. While for Blu-Ray in Children section, even 3-4 years old movies (like year 2019) in children section with almost no noticeable damage, there is good change can no longer play the whole movie. And in non-children movie section in library, I tried many Blu-ray of "somewhat" popular movies and almost 40% movies 2017 or older, you can't play the whole movie. The older those popular movie on Blu-ray, more likely it can't play. While for DVD, movies 2017 or older still have 90%+ chance you can play the whole movie.
