What's wrong with having the disc in the console if you want to play it?

Are gamers really that lazy we don't want to change a disc?

Has nothing to do with lazyness. These consoles are supposed to be masters of multitasking and a centerpiece of an entertainment mecca. People are going to do things like say..."xbox play forza" while watching televison and talking to friends on skype and expect forza to be loaded at the race you were about to do 2 days ago. You are suggesting that everything needs to stop, and a disk needs to be inserted to verify if you really own that game by inserting it and only then it can continue. Doesnt really work if you ask me...I mean the bottleneck that potentially takes you out of the whole experience is pretty evident.

Funny thing is it HAS worked since the Atari 2600 in 1977.
