I was referring to quality. Streaming is generally available in HD and
BluRay is effectively irrelevant.

And I still don't think A/V media is very applicable to Apple phasing
out optical drives. Optical media and drives will still be around for
dedicated players. Optical media for computer users on the other hand
has been largely replaced by USB and network transfer. That's the
important part. A/V consumption on computers is a nicety that is being
phased out fairly quickly.
