There is definitely a difference between DVD and Bluray, even if you are not that close to the TV. You might be nearsighted? ;) Just kidding, but I can't imagine how one can't see a difference there. I do agree that there are diminishing returns with 4K-Blurays though. Since your 4K TV usually upscales the image anyway, it's really hard to see a difference unless you have a really big TV or watch with a beamer.
