It's not very likely we will see an increase of products that exist only to play local files and have a reduction on streaming services, in fact the reverse is increasingly true. I do agree it's generally good to avoid investing in items that have vastly more features than you may ever need, but it perhaps does reach a point of false economy where you dismiss genuinely good options just because it has one or two things that are surplus to requirements. I never use coaxial inputs, but that doesn't mean I ignore all DACs that have this input. It's a bit like buying a new TV in this day and age; it's guaranteed to have things like Netflix built in, even if you never plan to use them and you just wanted something with great picture quality to watch your blu-rays.
