I do as well. I personally like the idea of owning the product and medium. I can pull out my SNES today and play Gradius III just as I could over a decade ago or take it over to a friend's house who also has a SNES and play it there. Digital distribution loses that feeling of ownership and portability.
However, if it enables me to get games which I would never even see otherwise... I think I can deal with that.
