 Ar> not play well in your appliance.

 Ar> If you had a DVD apliance that worked, you had no reason to upgrade. Image

What do you mean by "appliance" here?

 Ar> DVD reading software is much more mature in Linux than Bluray software. If
 Ar> you operate mainly with FOSS, it does not make much sense to mess with
 Ar> Blueray. If you want HD movies you are much better off buying them digital

I'm not sure I agree with that..  I don't really like to rely on streaming services all the time, so I still like to buy physical copies of movies.  I tend to buy blu-ray, and I'll rip them on my PC for my media server - I've been using MakeMKV to rip them, and that software works very well for blu-ray, including 4K blu-ray discs.  I haven't had a problem with it.
