There are plenty of advantages to havings games on discs. Being able to re-sell them being a major one, being able to lend them to friends and family being another. Owning a copy of something that may in fact increase in price over time is yet another. Nevermind whatever value there is in having a game on your shelf rather than a hard drive if you see any in that.

They "may" increase in price, but only a fraction of retail games are that lucky, especially if you open the box to play the game. Most games lose a lot of their resell value, in most cases the few bucks you can get for them ain't worth the effort.

True, but there is a 0% chance of a digital copy that increases in value if it remains as widely available and easy to obtain as people claim it to be. Thus, it's an advantage for hard copies of games.
