I really do appreciate the Oppo's dual HDMI outputs. One for audio only. Saved me a lot of money by not having to upgrade to a 4K AVR. I'm not aware of any other manufacturer that took the time to put that feature in their units.
I also think there are a lot (a whole lot) of people like myself that will continue to insist upon purchasing physical media. Streaming may be fine, and indeed the future, but like vinyl and CD's have proved, there will remain a healthy market for disc spinners.
Perhaps in time more credible information will come forward giving more detail to Oppo's horrific decision.
