Sony's abandonment of physical media might be coming for 4K Blu-ray players next - A.V. Club

Automated excerpt

Another milestone in one of the (formerly) biggest electronics giants on the planet’s ongoing retreat from physical media today, as Gizmodo reports (via Japanese retailer/blog Kunkoko) that Sony has announced that it apparently no longer intends to sell standalone Ultra HD/4K Blu-ray players (at least, in Japan). If you want a Sony player for your fancy 4K discs, pretty soon it sounds like you’ll have to just pick up a PlayStation 5—which is, of course, facing its own aspects of the physical media apocalypse at the moment.
