  But for physical goods, the minimum price is what the store paid for acquiring or producing it in the first place. That isn’t a consideration for digital goods.

    Its less of a consideration, I would say the cost of selling a disc based game is not a hugely different cost to selling a digital game for major players in the industry

      A disc as well as its packaging still cost money; also, a physical store needs to pay rent and salaries.
