They don't want you to own* physical media anymore.

I mean, I don't want to either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I love physical media. That way they can't take it away!

I'll scratch it or lose it, and if I don't, I'll have a pile of plastic crap I don't want. I'm not really worried about digital media being taken away, and I could find it again if need be.

Not a console user, but can you actually still play games from a disc without an sony account and internet connection?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I honestly am not sure. My most recent console is a switch from 6 years ago, before that is a ps3. I may be running on out of date info.
