My question to you: Over the past few years has your attitude to DD changed, if so why?
At first I was whole-heartedly against it. I wanted physical boxes, I wanted to be able to re-sell/trade-in titles I didn't enjoy. After getting my own place I realized how precious space is and how unnecessary it is to have a physical collection. Thanks to the super internet speeds in Canada, and Xbox Live's more aggressive marketing & deals, I amassed a collection of about 115 retail & arcade games.
I love that they're all sitting on the console without the need to change discs, I love that they don't take up space and I really don't mind not being able to sell them on (as I got them all for bargain prices anyway).
Now with the next generation I own an Xbox One, which due to a hardware fault means I can do downloads only. Here is where the beauty of DD starts to waver. Currently there is a HUGE price discrepancy between titles advertised on the store (49.99 for Shadows of Mordor for instance) and in a retail store (14.99 for the same title). Not only that but with the size of next gen games I find downloads can take several days to complete! The Master Chief Collection was downloading for 8 days solid! (which is partially due to slow UK internet).
So - for me personally I love the idea, I feel it works great on last gen but it's not quite there yet for this gen
