These game consoles don't have the storage for digital only. The DRM situation makes me think they are moving into that direction though

Losing a game for $6.
Hell fukking no. Rapestop is better than that.
$6 fukking dollars. Who would do that?
and this right here is why I don't fukk with the digital downloads when it comes to games.
at least I can flip the physical medium in a number of ways.

been saying this for the longest. why is a computer file costing the same as a physical copy??? makes no sense.
when I buy microsoft office from bill gates, they charge me less to download the software and more for a dvd copy. and that makes perfect sense.
The problem is if they did this people would stop buying physical copies for the most part and it would damage their retail partners.
They were already trying to cut retail out that's why the retail giants did their smear campaign (that worked) that helped PS4 take an early lead, even though Sony had the EXACT same ideas ready to go.

A bit off topic, I buy mostly digital. My last digital purchase was WWE 2k16 for X1 last week. The thing I hate about digital purchases on the X1 is that you get taxed meanwhile on the PSN Store you do not. But the digital downloads on the PS4 suck because of the long downloads compared the X1 download speed.
$6 is better than nothing because I know for a fact that I will never ever again in my life play Halo MCC.

That "better than nothingThey've been talking about thinking of a way to allow sharing/selling of digital games.
10% is pretty low, but I just deleted a bunch of games and got nothing for them. Woulda been nice to get something

It literally doesn't even make sense. Cause it's not nothingThat "better than nothing
You got no price deal for digital. And if you sold the hard copy you'd get double or triple that
So it's more like $6 is better than $15 and up

Let me start out by saying buying physical is almost always more beneficial in the long term than buying digital ... but that's not always the case. For example, I was able to find some crazy deal for The Last of Us digital for $15 when it was triple that in stores. Also, sports games and games that have yearly installments have a crazy depreciation once the next game in the series comes out. Someone might be willing to give you $15 for NBA 2k15 if you live in a major city or something, but otherwise you'll probably own it forever. It might make sense for some to buy digitally, and at least be guaranteed to get something back. Granted, these may be rapestop levels of a return, but it is better than possibly getting nothing when the latest Madden comes out.
So, I should be upset that they are thinking about offering me something for giving them nothing?That "better than nothing
