Bluray is still alive and well because its the only format that has full quality basically 1:1 media encodes which ironically make up the backbone of full quality media piracy.
No streaming service will ever support 70Gb+ file sizes because they never bothered to implement multicast so it would shred their bandwidth or rely on predownloading which would shred the tiny local storage included on most smart TVs.
You could of course use jellyfin or any other file share protocol to DIY, but you’d better have a stable 100Mbps minimum upload/download speed lol.
I don’t have a source, but I do believe I’ve already seen articles about multiple studios reducing their bluray releases. I think there was one studio which wanted to completely stop all of them even.

Blu ray video is lossy compressed. Lossless video is huge.
