Semantics, for those who keep claiming that digital games are licensed and physical games aren't. 

And physical is fine, and has its advantages, just like how digital has its advantages.

Everything I ever heard about digital's advantages are laziness. You don't have to put a disc in or you don't have to worry about your kids breaking your discs. I heard those as positives over and over. I can't see anyone who takes digital as in better than someone who justs wants to express that everyone should go digital because that is what they like and want. Its like feeling threatened so you or like others feel the need to express themselves. The only real advantage of digital content is music. We have ipods, other MP3 players, and we content them to are vehicles. That is real value in digital content that actually has real use. With that said, there is STILL music cds to this day! Video games are played in our homes. Saving space is the only other arguement and I heard that to but it makes me wonder if peoples' homes are the size of closets!

Yeah, because everyone likes exactly the same things, and should follow your opinion or be branded as lazy

Digital is personally more convenient for me, how is that laziness? I never said everyone should go fully digital either. And, believe it or not, in the real world people do have kids and pets that can cause damage. 

I simply stated that is the excuses I heard. I would also say there is very little competition as a plus for physical content. How many sources can you buy digital from? They all lead to the same network for the same price. Sony has flash sales and such but for games that were discounted many months ago. You can buy from different competition such as Amazon, Best Buy, Gamestop, Ebay, or by a friend.

I have two kids. I am responsible. If your a good parent, you should be watching them and have your games out of reach or being taught not to mess with those things. I have a huge collection. They never touch it. I have a girl that just turned 5 and one that turns 3 next month. I know all about kids getting into things.
