An external disc drive won't happen.

Also, accessories are generally sold at a higher price. So it would probably be more like $99. However, if it also worked as a PC accessory that would be cool.

What makes you think it won't? So many people have physical Xbox One games... and not everyone will afford $599 X.

Of course external disc drive will not happen, that's 100% logic, due to piracy. Xbox would be ruined if people could pirate games, check what happened to deamcast, easy piracy destroyed Sega.

External usb would make it too easy, people could just come up with a device that you connect in between the usb, like an adapter, and anyone could just do it.

And then whats the point of external drive? The people buying this are people who are moving to downloads only, so what could they use the disc drive for? Same with movies, people having digital download games are most likely doing the same for movies, I'm the opposite, I will always prefer the disc, unless the digital download is significantly cheaper. I like to be able to lend it to my friends, sell it second hand and just owning the game. Look at driveclub, digital download games can become a mess.
