I have a couple problems with full digital.

1. It isn't cheaper. I'm not paying for the extra costs associated with manufacturing the physical product and shipping, as well as anything else associated with a physical copy, so why am I paying the same? If I'm buying direct from Sony (for instance) then I should be paying cost. The 10% cheaper on digital copies should be for everyone, you shouldn't have to pay 5 dollars a month to get 7 dollars off of a few games each year.

2. I'd rather have information contained on a disc so that I don't have to worry about space management with my console memory. Every game installs now, but that's much smaller than a full download as far as I'm aware.

3. The saleability/gifting ability of digital copies is zero. Once it's yours it's yours forever. If I want to lend it to a friend, or sell a game I'm tired of, I can't.
