What Hi-Fi? ask "Why doesn't anyone make 4K Blu-ray players anymore?"

Not exactly a highly researched article. Like, when it says "4K Blu-ray discs have seen record sales figures as of late." it links to an article saying that (for one week) 4K had a record market share among discs sold... but we know that overall disc market has been shrinking like 20% y/y, so even in that one week, we're talking about a larger share of a smaller market.

I agree. It's kind of why I wanted to post a thread about it because it seemed like it could just be a post from here! It interested me but was so brief with scant information, thought I'd get some expert opinions!
