I know this is something likely been argued on the internet forever but I wanted a feeling here; how do people here feel about the prospects of digital content ownership?
Personally aside from Steam I've always tended physical, as I don't trust that in time I can potentially lose my stuff, as the days of the original Xbox Live shutting down showed me.
Reason I'm asking now is specifically due to digital movies. Renting movies online has been a recent revelation I've found, especially with the current cinema shutdown. But more and more new releases I've seen are foregoing this option, leaving only the option to buy, and I don't want to be ordering discs that some poor chap has to deliver in this situation.
Price points I've seen tend to be mid DVD and Blu-Ray, so was wondering how many folk here buy movies digitally and how they feel about digital ownership in this way? Am I overthinking this and just need to get with the times?
If you do, who's the best provider to buy from, as they all seem the same to me?
