It includes all dollars spent. So every microtransaction, every skin purchased in League of Legends, every gacha roulette in Puzzle and Dragons, etc.

In other words, it is a completely useless compilation of data that speaks in no way to any trend away from a market for physical purchases since it includes mountains of products only being offerred digitally.

I wouldn't say that. It shows that without a doubt that consumers will consume far more digitally than physically. It speaks  to customer willingness to buy things on digital platforms. There shouldn't be uneasiness about that. Physical is obviously still important, but even on consoles, it's losing ground to digital.

I'd bet that physical won't be an option in 2 generations, if there are new consoles at all.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
