Interesting to know that PS consoles have a higher digital attach rate.

ur assumption is wrong
this are overall numbers

ps4 in genreal is selling more software, so the overall digital number is higher, too
that does not equal, the digital attachrate is higher. in fact it's even more likely, that the digitalattchrate is lower for ps

to bad we don't know the nintendo share (wich will be low obvious) and could do the math

Hi Prinz! Ah, no. These numbers are for 7th+8th gen. If you add PS3 total userbase and PS4 total userbase you get ~105 million. If you do the same for X360 and XBO you get ~96 million. And of course Nintendo has 9 million Wii Us (Does the Wii even have a digital store? It won't have any big dales numbers regardless.)

That means PS has 105 million out of 210 million, which means 50% marketshare for consoles with online storefronts.

It also means Xbox has ~46% marketshare for consoles with online storefronts, and the Wii U has ~4%.

 

Now even if we assume the Wii U has zero digital sales, which means that the remaining 37% here are all xbox, PS still has a higher attach rate, because it's 63% online sales matketshare versus 50% console marketshare, while for cbox it's 37% online sales marketshare versus 45% console marketshare.
