I made a new blog post giving my thoughts on PlayStation not making disks anymore, and the arguments around it.

I personally don't think most people care about physically owning media (and some people even suggested PC should start going back to physical). It's more about digitally owning your games.

Indeed. My point is that the PlayStation situation is not comparable to what we can do with Steam games, where it's all out in the open, with multiple independent implementations, at least one of which is open-source and multi-platform.

(I'm glad there are people working on PS5 hacks, though.)
