@sladakrobot: Never underestimate how stupid people can be, even now you can see companies conditioning people to own less and pay more, Netflix for example is a great deal but you don't own any of those movies and they can take them away anytime. Video games have been trying to move in a similar direction for a while and digital is just the Trojan horse.
Of course EA is excited for an all digital future (more profit and price control), personally digital does not really appeal to me, I can't stand DRM/always online, waiting for downloads/updates etc. The day the video game industry goes exclusively digital will probably be the day I stop buying new games.
