For me Physical all the way, it saves a lot of money and huzzle. Just some days ago i borrowed  Resident Evil 7 from my brother, dont have to buy to play the game and can spend my money elsewhere.

PS4 does the same. Physical games take up just as big a chunk of hard drive space still. Although it's done really fast, like within 10 seconds or something. Kinda crazy compared to Xbox One install times.

It's not dumping the whole game within 10 seconds. That is impossible.

Yet the whole game is available to play after just a few seconds...

Because it reads from the disc. Which kinda raises the question why it's not possible to have the option of playing from disc (with maybe a few files on HDD) or a full install.

Thats because most PS4 games install and let you game at the same time, it only reads a portion first and installs the rest

But if you had the disc you could only be playing it in one system anyway? I'm not sure I understand this, as you have it you can have your kids playing a game on your primary ps4 offline and you can be in another room playing the same game on the secondary ps4 while it's connected to psn.

its really unlikeley that he and his kids want to play the same game at the same time, except if its something like a heavily MP based game
