I am not "downplaying a console we don't know nothing about". Damn IF the PS6 really had a DD i would get it even for 2000€!! Even if i could take a 5000€ PC as a present instead!! (So much for my "jabs at Playstationð"). But as it seems like now, chances are getting lower every year.*

Yes Sony discontinues rewritable BDs. And here is my question: What is a BD movie/ game disc BEFORE a game is WRITTEN on it?Correct: A REWRITABLE Disc. So where do you write your games on if you discontinue the format you normally use for that purpus? Movie/ gamediscs don't fall from the sky. If it still played Discs then yes it will be the last one! Here I am with you! I am a total enemy of digitalisation everyone knows that, otherwise i would be PC all in wich i am certenly not! So i would need to say that PS6- PS10 (patent from Sony) would be all discs 100% with the PS10 having an outside chance of using the AD (Archival Disc)! *But when 70%+ of your games get sold digitally and Sony really waited till 2028 or even longer where would be this number by then? For sure that Trend won't be reversed. So many people here are talking about GTAVI! This game will (most likley) have a record breaking launch and could boost this digital trend even more! If Sony waited till 2028 and MS till 2027 with their new consoles, MS will be 100% digital next gen, no argue about that, but digital game sales on PS5 won't be lower than 85% maybe even 90% or more! PS6 won't support a DD for 10%- 20% of buyers! You see what i mean?

Companies can still purchase rewritable discs from other vendors. You're being overly paranoid about this. 

There's not much to discuss here; I think the PS6 will have a disc drive and it's probably going to be the last Sony console that can play physical games. And that's all speculation based on nothing, really. Feel free to disagree.
