Guess you can look at it both ways but I dont ever want to see a day where DD is manditory. There is no value in a DD colection but there is in a physical collection. If Ihate the game I just purchased I can sell it and get some money back. With DD im stuck with the POS forever and eat my losses.

Bolded #1: False. If digital data holds no value, why can people sell their WoW accounts, Xbox Live Gamertags and what not? What should stop me from selling my Steam account and all the games on it at the price I want?
Bolded #2: Sort of true, at least for now. On Android, you have 24 hours to decide whether or not you want your money back, and there is no reason why a system like this can't gain traction when DD starts to grow. On a related note, with PS Plus, Sony have demos that are the first hour of a game, a feature designed to help players better designed if a game is worth their time before they buy it. As DD becomes more popular, features like these are sure to become the norm for helping gamers decide whether this DD purchase is for them and help them with their purchases.

Cause that goes against policies and might get accounts banned. Also if I wanted to sell one game off my DD list I couldnt. I would have to sell the whole friggin account.

True, you can't sell it like you would with a normal game, but that's the way things are designed now. As I pointed out with #2, we're seeing new features making DD more attractive all the time, and as DD becomes more and more normal, we're bound to see more features that help us manage the digital space.
But your digital collection still holds value, and just because you can't manage that value very well right now doesn't mean you can't in the future.
