I just don't have the physical space for all the junk anymore. Digital please. I'm at the point where I will wait out a PC release by a couple of months for the Steam version. I'm pretty sure that within a few years most PC publishers really are going to say "fuck you" to the brick and mortar PC market since all they do is hold the digital services to ransom in terms of pricing. The PC section of most retailers is really pathetic these days anyway.
I agree that the bandwidth just isn't there yet for movies to be distributed digitally in HD, but really that's only a matter of time. Blu-Ray will get enough shelf-life not to be dubbed a stopgap, but I think it will be the last of the disc-based movie formats. |

| digitally delivered movies, shows, and concerts are also most certainly not going to inlcude several audio format options, including bitperfect and lossless. |
They are whenever it becomes a profitable differentiating factor across competing distribution companies. The more players enter the market the more competition there is and thus the standards improve. |
