If you're using it as a pure streaming box, there's no point.

If you're running games, you might reasonably want more storage and Ethernet.

If you're traveling some place that connectivity might be poor (e.g., you have an RV and want the family to be able to watch movies while you drive across $BORING_SCENERY_STATE), you can store more videos on it.

I would have said that previously….

I’ve got three of the ‘old’ base 4K models.

And they are constantly running out of space!

They never used to. But now they do.

OS updates are to blame maybe.

I’ve deleted as much as I can, and just have my core 4 streaming app. No games.

And yet still it is offloading things like YouTube and I have to reboot to have a chance of it reinstalling.
