Especially when you need the disk to play it, then it's just inconvenient.
I guess I can understand some people having the mindset that makes them want to have their game represented in this dimension by a plastic something, but for me, I see it as nothing more than a barrier. I remember a time when that was the standard. I like to think that I'm a logical fellow that can adapt to a change like this based on the standpoint that it is much more efficient.
See, I want something to show that I got my money's worth. I want to put it on my shelf with my other games/movies/whatever from the same series or type of release. I have all 9 Final Fantasy games on my shelf lined up most of the time. Same goes for the GTAs, SMTs, and Metal Gears. For movies, I have all of my digibook BDs on one shelf. All of my Pixar movies on another shelf. All of my DC animated movies on one shelf, etc. The only way I can justify downloading something is if it is free (whether it be legally or not, I don't care) or if it is a rare game that I can either pay $10 for to download or pay $100 to physically own. Or, if it is a game I already own, and as such, I own the box, manual, etc, to have on my shelf. A perfect example are the PS2 GTA games. Sony had a sale of the PSN versions a few weeks ago for 50% off, so I took advantage of it and picked up all 3 games as I have the PS2 versions to keep on my shelf.

Me too.

With DRM and increasingly ridiculous copyright laws, people's rights to own their things physically are curtailed too.

I disagree. As far as I am concerned, if I pay for it, it is mine to do with as I want.

Well, I don't know about you, but I spend more time playing the games I have and watching the movies I have then staring at the shelves they sit on.

Besides, everyone knows that shelves are for action figures.

You can disagree all you want, but again, times are changing. You may have bought that copy of that new game, that physical, something to show for, do whatever you want with copy of that game, and still can't let your friend play it, even if you wanted to, because it's yours.

I'm not going to argue semantics here, because I pirate shit all the time. But according to the RIAA and MPAA, it's against the law to show DVDs and BDs to an audience outside of your immediate family that live with you.

It's a true fact. I don't like it either. But you don't own anything that is copywritten already.

I watched the press conference. I liked Titan Fall and Project Spark, but not enough to want to deal with MS's BS policies.
