If they do this, I might leave Sony. But I don’t think they would such a thing except if they really remive every physical drive, which would also make me think about leaving.

Theyre already doing it with all PS3 games, and you can only stream them.
This absolutely is not preservation of classic games, this is walling off and financially exploiting them as much as possible. Nintendo is doing the exact same thing.
Imagine if these companies started doing this with all new games? They wont right now because people would be outraged at not possessing their games(or at least their data).
Alas, we are all boiling frogs and 2013 Xbox is getting what they predicted… An all digital future where the consumer possesses nothing and pays more for it. This is exactly where Sony is headed… Dont let the insulting trickle feed of 2 classic titles per month convince anyone otherwise.

I ain’t so convinced to be honest, but I’m always jeeping an eye on their moves.
Playstation 6 will really reveal a lot about their plans.
We might have a fully retrocompatible console with a (optional) disc drive.
We might also have a digital only console with subscriptions.
Ii it’s the later, I’ll be jumping to Linux gaming.

It will definitely be something in between that incrementally moves the mark in their favor to an extent that people dont mind.
Linux truly is the only open frontier of gaming and software independence. The only reason to not be there already is mild inconvenience.
