It sold a lot of copies purely off the back of that, especially from early adopters keen to have something to showcase on their equipment. In the early days of DVD, I have not-too-fond memories of Batman & Robin being a best-selling disc because the market was shy of titles and the film also had one of the best transfers available in those early years.

It requires the right technology – a good, sizeable HDR-supporting television, and ideally an excellent sound system too – but it remains, for me, the best format to watch a movie on. The slow relaxation of disc pricing is important too (with multi-buy offers across several retailers), because for someone who wants excellent home cinema, 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray has much to commend it.
It’s not helped too that it’s only over the past few months that disc pricing offers have started to see a variety of films at a spread of prices (player prices are falling, too). But also, particularly in the light of Blade Runner 2049’s release, it feels worth the investment.ĤK Ultra HD’s gradual rise is coming at the expense of 3D Blu-ray players, and few would argue that it’s not still a niche, premium format. As a customer who’s been with the format since the day it went on sale, the point we’re at now, with a steady flow of quality titles, has been a while coming. But, after a quiet start, there’s finally a sense that 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray is an upgrade that can reward investment as the premium physical disc format of choice. It’s not always gone to plan, as the rotting HD DVD player in my loft will testify to. When it comes to movie disc formats, I now tend to adopt early, and have done so since the DVD days.
