Mate. So many disks I got with games since assassin's creed black flag were corrupt and required a download anyway, or required an online login and forced update to be able to play, making offline use of the phisical media impossible. And when they decide to stop supporting the game, online servers are shut down and the physical disk is nothing more than a beer coaster. Even when you purchase a physical game you need to register in Steam or any other gaming platform, you still just bought the rights to play their game instead of owning the game. When they don't rant you to have these rights anymore, they can remove the game from your library whenever they want. Again, disk is just a coaster. Even physical products are not really your ownership. BMW hiding car features ON YOUR CAR behind a paywall, phone companies selling you the right to use their phone with their service, bloatware and restrictions on there. A fridge YOU BOUGHT which stops working if you do not update or have it constantly online, which uploads gigabytes of your data daily, which force shows ads. Like, what the fuck. You don't own shit anymore, even if you paid for a physical product.
