Yeah, Microsoft has a pretty bad rep with Xbox Live accounts. For multiple years, the Fifa hacks ran rampant with little action. Google "Xbox Fifa Hack" and you'll get a good feel for things - CBC even has a long write up on it from just a few months ago (Jesus, they're still happening?!). And heaven help you if you try to remove a credit card from your Xbox Live Account - they've done everything possible to prevent it.

Its these issues that will need to be addressed before we can move forward into a completely digital download age.
Yup, but I think the uproar from people is that Sony isn't requiring that all physical disks be registered to a single digital account unlike Microsoft. At worst, you lose your account you could still play them all on a new system.

Totally agree with your second paragraph. But I'm sure customers may not like the answers of that digital age.
