There are those that hate the death or limited availability of news papers, Vinyls, manual transmissions, and many other things. You either got stick to your limited access to new or move on.

Yeah right now, the industry is fine. It's a good time to be a gamer. Price gouging and MTS keep trying to happen, but physical copies are one of the things that help put a stop to that.
CDs, Automatic Transmission, and Internet based news all offer something above what they replaced. But I don't see any benefits of going from physical disks to digital only. I mean, aside from cutting some middlemen out of the deal, but those savings are rarely passed onto us. Steam sales often happen long after the used price of a game has dropped, and console digital sales are even more of a slap in the face.
But I'm pretty sure that Activision just goofed, and cares more about meeting their shipping deadline than they care about having the entire game on a disc. Oh well. Guess I'll wait for the Switch version that comes complete.
