does not look like the normal BR is included, I really wanted to make comparisons
edit: description does say 2 discs, so hopefully the normal BR might be included

4K on Netflix is not really comparable to a decent 4k Blu-ray. Not enough bitrate and too heavily compressed. I have fiber broadband and to my eye its often not up to regular Blu-ray standard, let alone 4K.
For those of you wanting to try this just to see what the format is like, don't bother. Like many early 4K releases this one is upscaled from something very similar to the standard Blu-ray resolution. Having watched several of these in the past few weeks, there really is very little difference in picture quality to a normal Blu-ray, even with HDR. If you want to sample what the format can do get something like The Revenant which is native 4K and absolutely stunning on a decent UHD TV, watch it then sell it on.

1) 4K disc will be vastly superior to Netflix 4K even on the quickest connections.
2) Lots of people like to have a film collection, especially with box cover artwork/steel books/boxsets.
3) You can't resell your Netflix subscription to make back some of your outlay (or in this case profit), after watching it.

Can't be ar*sed to do that. They are at least £20 so a tidy profit for who ever wants to.
all gone on argos ebay site but surely they got plenty on argos online. Well, I now need the player , lol. Anyone can address me for the best xbox S bargain??
I did the same thing with the ps3 when it came out, started to play the BR, did spend £500 only for that, other players were at over £1000 at the time

says 2 disc on the description so looks like it does include the blu ray as well.

Bought. Don't have a 4k tv or anything but it's cheaper than the normal Blu Ray anyway.

that is how I started with the blurays. I got a cheap bluray movie from ebay purchased for curiosity but then cost me over £2000 to buy the rest and only few days later, lol
