Why Xbox and PlayStation are forcing us to go "All Digital"
391I saw a meme the other day and it kinda stuck in my craw. Why is everyone making a huge deal about Xbox and PlayStation killing off physical media for their consoles? See, physical media is what consoles are known for. And, sure, gamers might be outraged by the idea of Xbox killing off Gamestops and physical releases altogether, but do they know why? Given the reasons I've heard from folks across the web, I've gotta say that I don't think they do.
In this video, we'll explore the many reasons I've heard attempting to explain why the console manufacturers are forcefully getting rid of physical media, why those reasons are wrong... and then we'll talk about the true underlying reasons.
