Well If the pricing was different and more competative would you consider buying more games didital?
With the current gen I have wanted to buy more games digital but the pricewall has always stoped me from doing so, Here in the UK retail is usually £39.99 or£44.99 and and the digital equivlent is £49.99 and £54.99
The most extreme example i saw was Final Fantasy Type-0 on the PS4 ( not sure if X1 was same) This was £34.99 retail or £54.99 digital.
I would really like to see some more competative digital pricing and if they released all digital games for £34.99 and retail at £44.99 I would probably buy most of my games as digital and since I wouldnt resell it down the line it would make the publishers more money in the long run since selling it after 1-2 months giving someone a pre owned copy takes away from a full price £44.99 sale.
Refering to console digital prices as steam is already good for PC gaming prices.

Yes. I buy more digital games than on disc, a lot more. But I never buy a new(ish) digital release that costs over £40. It's just more convenient, (Streaming is even more convenient which is why PS Now will do ok despite naysayers).
No you can't sell your games but I it's cool that all your games are always there, no scratches, no faulty discs, no transporting, available to download what ever machine you logon to.
