| FaRmLaNd said: Digital distribution makes sense form a content creators perspective. They don't need to press the physical media, they don't need to ship it, they're under no obligation to create loads of extra content. Its makes more sense from a creators point of view then a consumers. The overarching philosophy being make more money by doing less. |
QFG [quoted for garbage]
Really?! This is what i call tunnel vision. The last time i checked DD would also benefit the consumer as well from the spin-off effect of the reasons you listed. Reduced manufacturing and operational cost, would result in cheaper games as the saving would be passed along. Also how could you forget the impact it would have on the environment. With all the talk today on "going green" one would think you'd consider the resources put in to manufacture instruction manuals and disc cases. Both of these processes directly contribute to ozone depletion.
In case anyone doesn't know this by now i'm am a huge proponent for Digital Distribution [more an environmentalist though], to me, the sooner it becomes the the standard the better.
