You are not buying a hard drive. That is not a hard drive any more than a Tesla or Ferarri is a set of tires. Comparing hardware with zero value on the IP and software is missing the value of what they have created.

If we are going to go that route, $30 for an UHD 4K BR is a lot of money to pay for a 10 cent piece of plastic.
