You are 100% right about that starcraft. The thing is, even if we have a decent internet connection we are screwed by the fact that our ISPs do not allow unlimited downloads. For example right now I have a 12Mbps connection but I can only download a maximum of 60 Gig per month at which point my connection gets capped and I get dial up speeds lol.
This problem is not just Australia's but a lot of countries. So we can safely assume that optical drives will be around for the forseeable future
