yeah and it's not that dissimilar on consoles. 800gb call of duty games on a single disc? plus you need a connection to play most games or even get the necessary patches that make the game playable since everything comes out as trash in the 1.0 version.

I see the appeal and desire for physical media but at this point it's a charade and more harmful for the environment to boot
