Most movies these days are still mastered in 2k, so it's likely Discovery is a 2k master as well. However, I think I read somewhere that Netflix requires 4k? So, not sure.
Discovery DVD/Blu Ray Release?

I'm fairly sure Season 1 was mastered in 1080.
Resolution is only one aspect of picture quality. In comparison with physical media, streaming video is jittery and doesn't have quite as good color depth.

I agree 100%. Recently, I moved my Bluray from our 'Bonus Room' (where it was gathering dust) down to our Living Room and hooked it up. Watching Rouge One and The Last Jedi, I was impressed how much better the video quality was over Netflix and Amazon Streaming feeds. Much better color, no loss in clarity during high motion action sequences, better audio ... and the list goes on. Blurays are far better in my option, over streaming when it comes to picture and sound
Hoping it’s out before the holidays in the US. I have many people on my list who will get a season 1 Blu-ray...
Incremental updates, all of it. I can already stream 1080p that I paid money for. If they want my money again for same content, they better have 4k quality in addition to all the other improvements you mentioned.
I actually am thankful when internet goes down. (not often with Comcast around these parts, go figure
) I use that time to read an actual book.
I'll buy the Blu-Ray for Season 1 of Discovery... in 2030.
The prices for Star Trek Blu-Rays and DVDs are obscene. Though I'd like to be wrong, I expect the situation here to be the same. I'll wait for the cost to come down to something that's not completely ridiculous.

I've watched the show just to keep up-to-date on what's happening in the Trek universe. But like so many other television shows these days, so far I have not been compelled to re-watch any episodes, and this is the first Trek that I don't really feel like I need to own on a physical media format.
That being said, I might watch a couple of the early episodes again -- just once -- to see what insights there might be into Lorca's character with the hindsight of what happened later in the season.

The funny thing is, this is the only other Star Trek series besides TOS that I want to buy on physical media.
I'll buy DSC in a cold minute when it comes out on iTunes.
I've been waiting for the blu-ray. I still haven't seen a single episode.
I also have not seen a full episode of Star Trek: Discovery aside from the pilot episode, The Vulcan Hello. If CBS and Paramount won't release this show, they're no better than the Ferengi.
One thing that I definitely want to see on Blu-Ray because I couldn't see it the first time due to CBS All Access. I didn't want to subscribe to it for just one show. I actually called CBS and told them that making Star Trek: Discovery an exclusive to CBS All Access, they basically cut off most of their fan base. I also used Spock's logical phrase: "The Needs of the Many outweigh the Needs of the Few, or the One." I can only hope that CBS understood what I meant.
Live long and prosper.

No. The DVDs for the Walking Dead shows don't include Talking Dead.
