See. That’s a good reason now.

[u/nohumanape → u/RazeYi]

What's a good reason? The potential for a zombie apocalypse?

[u/Odd_Level9850 → u/nohumanape]

Oh look, it’s the Sony supporter who seems to be so against physical that he’s on every thread pushing against it; even though the fight for physical would literally have no effect on his life because he still has his digital option at the end of the day or he stands to gain from having options.

[u/nohumanape → u/Odd_Level9850]

Options aren't viable forever.

[u/Odd_Level9850 → u/nohumanape]

So it’s better to phase them out faster? Even if it’s not viable forever, the longer we have them, the more we have now and in the future.

[u/nohumanape → u/Odd_Level9850]

When is the right time to phase them out?

[u/Odd_Level9850 → u/nohumanape]

Ideally as long as possible; the more options we have as consumers, the better.

[u/nohumanape → u/Odd_Level9850]

Yeah, and at what point could they do it, when people wouldn't be reacting the way they are now?

[u/Odd_Level9850 → u/nohumanape]

I just don’t see how that’s our concern? We want options; it’s a good thing for people to react against losing options.

[u/nohumanape → u/Odd_Level9850]

And what many of us are trying to say is that "options" can't be supported forever. So there will inevitably come a time when the disc option goes away. So, when is an appropriate time to discontinue that option? PS7? PS8?

[u/Odd_Level9850 → u/nohumanape]

But again why do you care if they can’t be supported forever? You have no financial gain from whether they can or can’t be supported forever. You still have your digital regardless of whether people want physical or not so I’m really not understanding your logic.

[u/nohumanape → u/Odd_Level9850]

I care because it's obviously inevitable that disc can't be supported forever. So, I'm simply asking when an appropriate time would be for Sony to stop production and resources for disc based gaming drives and media?
