This is also true. With DRM, I feel like we’re missing out on a lot of property rights that should be remediated. I’m not sure what all could be done for zero day patches, though. Maybe we go back to the Windows XP days and distribute update packages via CD as well.
TBH, though- if we have the ability to directly access the storage medium of a console and we are able to remove DRM, there’s no reason to make a disc drive mandatory
In the days of zero days patches and DRM requiring a check to the servers, a disc doesn’t guarantee that at all.
If anything, disc just became dongles to prove ownership and download the full game.
