As video game consoles move to a more digital ecosystem, you may be wondering what to do with the 4K Blu-ray collection you have been amassing.

The reason the Digital Edition of the PS5 can take an excellent price cut is, in part, due to the lack of mechanical parts that make up the optical drive. Unfortunately, that means those of us with a sizeable physical movie collection will have to make some hard decisions and to look elsewhere for a player.

The best choice for that "elsewhere" is the Sony UBP-X700. With its crystal sharp visuals, Wi-Fi for streaming, and excellent price tag, the Sony scores high in every metric.
