I don’t think your first statement is true anymore. Apple Music provides digital masters and full Atmos for streaming and downloads.

Their older songs are always re mastered or enhanced for the best quality imaginable. Sadly, Spotify doesn’t even come close, but streaming or downloading digital copies these days is quite good.

In fact, out of all the things, music is really easy to get these days compared to say 20 years ago when the RIAA and MPAA were waging war with the internet.

The news article talks about the discontinuation of video physical releases, while you are correct in the sense that you can find high quality audio digitally, i am unaware of anything comparable for video.
