How big is the difference between 4K disk and 4K digital? (alien.top)

For a long time I have bought the digital versions of movies off of iTunes and have more recently been expanding my physical collection. I’m curious, how big is the difference between the 4K digital version of a movie compared to the actual 4K disc? If I own the 4K digital version of a movie is there any reason to also pick up the disc version?

I also buy the physical disc with the digital copies as well. While the digital version is convenient you can’t beat the physical disc IMO. I have collected over 600 Blu-ray’s and while it’s easy to pull up some of those movies on iTunes. I still find myself grabbing the disc because I can see the difference and especially hear the difference.
