Sony is forcing me to go digital, but I still want physical!

I have a large amount of Digital games but i still prefer physical copies. I worry that if my HDD crashes 10 years from now that i won't have the option to re-download them to a new HDD. If that happens I'm out the games and my money. If you have physical and your rig goes down all you have to do is buy a new rig and you still have your games (although you may also miss out on patches if it is a significant amount of time after release).

Your purchase are tied to your PSN or Xbox live account. You can always re-download.

And if one of those services ends?

Are you also worried about things that can happen to physical discs?

Accidentally break? Over time a lot of my N64 games have stopped working

Damage? Flood or fire

Misplaced? Still can't find my copy if Dead Space 1

Stolen? My friend had his apartment broken into. Poof, his entire game collection was gone. With digital you could just buy another console and redownload all if them

 

I'm just saying that physical isn't 100% superior
