Do you also only drive stick shift cars instead of automatic, prefer to heat food only with a fire instead of a stove/microwave, only send hand-written notes to people in the mail instead of emails/text messages, or any other example of refusing modern conveniences in the name of quality? Humanity makes advancements in convenience all the time, and those stubbornly holding on to inconvenient systems either die out in time or become an insignificantly small portion of the population to the point that the market no longer concerns itself with them. If you want to be that, that's your choice, but there really is no point complaining about it in a public forum unless it makes you feel better. You won't change the market's mind.
One day, sooner or later, the practice of creating physical video games will end. One day after that, the idea of buying digital video games will end in favor of subscriptions. That is the future. We knew this was coming because of what the movie industry went through, it may take a while to fully kick in, but it's coming. Eventually it won't be cost effective for companies to even allow digital sales, let alone physical ones, because getting recurring monthly subscribers is far more consistent and lucrative long-term. It may be tragic to some, if not many people, but you best prepare for it. It's enivitable.
