I'm wondering how much of this issue is "player defects" vs. "disc defects."

I have too. But some of these Blu Ray and 4K disks have defects making them useless. You have to watch an entire disk to experience the issues. That can add up to be a lot of time which many do not have. I've had new blu ray and 4k sitting around for years. Tried a few and found some of the discs do not work or fail to go any further at a certain point. The studios are using garbage companies to manufacture these dirt cheap. They don't care. You can go on forums to see all the issues which they are aware of. Quality discs seem to be disappearing. I'm finding myself wanting to look for older publishing dated discs.

I'm selling all my physical media cause I can't take them with me where I'm moving. It sounds like we're a match made in heaven.
They also had regular bluray sale 3/15 that I picked up Princess Bride, Batteries Not Included and Flash Gordon, but that was I think last November or maybe October.
ebay might be cheaper, but with 4k be sure to check, Gruv tried 3 times with Apollo 13 for me as it had weird circular scrapes on the surface and would not play on my xbox player. It's nice though that they don't make me send them back so now I have 3 copies of it on bluray too with the combo. ha!
