While Blu-ray and HD-DVD were arguing over what comes after DVDs, they were both consigned to the dustbin. And while I like to not be reliant on subscription services, I’ve got to say a bunch of files on a Jellyfin server is much more convenient than a shelf full of plastic and foil discs.
With modern internet speeds, there’s no reason you can’t have full UHD-BR quality streamed over the internet.
Although that’s mostly because physical media sales are in the toilet.

Cost is a prohibitive reason for many (hardware, internet).
I do believe files are better than physical media, simply because with the proper setup they’re easily backed up and won’t degrade or break.
