The streamed version is the definitive version in my opinion unless they decide to either stream it on Netflix or something with a higher bit rate or put it out on 4K Bluray which they claim they won't.
In my opinion the only reason to watch the DVD is if you don't have a good TV or the ability to watch the 4K streamed version.
Same with the ZooTV stream. The video quality of the stream blows away the DVD and made the DVD irrelevant for me personally. I wish they would release a box set of all their old DVDs remastered on bluray. Vertigo deserves a HD release. I haven't been able to watch the full show on DVD since it was put out due to it being incorrectly mastered so it was either window-boxed or I had to zoom which makes it look like crap on a big screen. At one point I think it was aired (I cant remember if it was full show or edited on an HD music channel back in the day and I had a nice 1080p rip which looked much better than the DVD but I lost it due to hard drive failure).
Maybe some day...
