Digital future is slow to transition and digital customers have to suffer.

Even for gamers we all agree that there more value if you can get a retail copy vs digital copy.

..

i disagree.  retail is worth at least 50% less to me than digital.   ..maybe even less.

i'll pay money for an mp3.  i won't even accept a CD anymore.   i feel almost the same about video games.

Even though you could take the files from the CD and convert them to mp3s and then sell the CD?

if i buy digitally i get to listen to the music now.

if i buy a cd i have to wait 5 days for it to ship (via amazon cause like hell i'm driving to best buy) take the time rip it and than transfer it to my phone.   fuck that shit.  how poor would i have to be that i'd rather wait a week and spend an hour fucking around with shit in order to save 5 bucks.  i have a kid now.  my free time is worth dramatically more than 5 bucks and hour. 

Man, you spoke for me right there. With 2 kids, my time is at a premium, and I'm not about to run to a store to get shit, when I can download it. Now, I do still buy most of my games physically, but when I don't have the time to go get it, I download it. Music, I never buy cd anymore..... I just like to resell my games after some time....  other then that, no reason for physical anything.
