5 years vs. 80. I’ll leave that up to you.
Ideally we’d get to keep both around. I can see a world where we’re trading digital media around on discs deep into the next century, but I can also see how currently there’s also room for more transient media to serve less preservation-conscious people who don’t go out of their way to own a disc drive.
You make it sound like they are hard to get and not just able to be purchased online like everything else.
Either you genuinely think it’s realistic to expect any better from the average person, or you don’t care about the average person. Either way I don’t think we’re working from the same notes
So the next question then becomes: does the average person even care to buy boxed games in the first place? They can just buy them online (along with that ever elusive disc drive).
I’m noticing a bit too much circularity in this dialogue tree. We both know how each other feel, why keep banging on about it?
