Ironically, I am likely moving in the opposite direction, and downgrading to the HD Netflix stream (2 streams, $15.49/month). I had the UHD version in anticipation of upgrading my old 1080p plasma TV to a 4K model, but now I don't see that happening any time soon, and Netflix has angered me enough with its password crackdown that I don't feel like being generous.

I just signed up for Curiosity Stream and the Criterion Channel, which I can currently stream on my iPad; once I get a Roku installed on my old TV, I will be streaming from those two plus PBS Passport, which between the three of them offer more quality content than I can ever watch.
And like you, I will continue to purchase Blu-rays.
