Physical games: 5%
Digital software: 21%

Not sure if that 21% includes movies. But either way, 4x that of physical sales is quite a lot.

And this is for revenue. Profits will obviously be even higher then for digital.

Wow. This is further proof that digital is on its way to total dominance. Add on Content is where the $ is, which some may feel sucks but clearly many are showing their approval with their wallets.

It is terrifying that MTX, DLC and the like is bigger than total sold SW, with it being about 7x the physical copies. Well even Subs (which is massive) is almost 3x the size of physical sales and well it adds almost as much as half the total sales of games itself. So if you were really considering only 1st party games PS+ makes more revenue (and likely profit) than the entirety of their Studios (will probably be the same for MS with GP very soon).
