Did you not read my message? I said I totally get not liking DRM. Which btw can turn physical copies into paperweights too if its Orwellian enough. If a digital copy has no DRM it is even more resilient than physical because most physical copies do have DRM that prevents making backup copies.

Hard desagrdid you read my message? I said they can’t just make my physical copy disappear from my library. My physical library. Never in my life have i had a physical copy not play flawless when i put it in. Had to give the old carts a blowy every now and then but never did they not work. Never.

They can’t delete digital copies I have downloaded either.
Sure they may not let you download a new copy in 50 years, but your physical copy is probably going to be fucked by then too. At least my digital copy could have been backed up and coped to multiple different storage devices. Your physical copy almost certainly has some kind of copy protection that prevents you from making a backup.
