| VanceIX said: A lot of people say that the best reason to go physical is that you actually own the game. That's not true. You own the disc itself, but the game is licensed to you, just like digital games. Under the law, there is almost no difference in ownership. That being said, no one is coming to take away your rights to play your discs. At the same time, however, that generally doesn't happen with digital games either unless you seriously fuck up. I'm not saying that everyone should up and quit physical and buy digital only, just saying that the concept of "ownership" is really not that different between the two, as far as the law is concerned. |
I don't think most or at least in my opinion care about what the law says with ownership of digital content. It still is worthless to me if I can't physically hold it. It won't be worth anything. It can't have any real value. You can't trade it, sell it, and borrow it. I don't care about ownership of digital content. I buy tons of indie titles and have many on the PS3 but they are constrained to that one console. I can't do anything with those games while all my physical PS3 and 360 titles are outside my PS3 and 360 that I can do what I want with. They stay displayed giving me the feeling of worth while those on the PS3 and 360 just sit inside while the systems will soon be sit aside for good.
