It is better for many people. It all depends on what you prefer. I personally prefer having a full digital library that I can share via home console sharing, that I can access at any time from any Internet connected console at any time, that I don’t have to worry about my kids damaging or losing my disks, and that I can just buy and play at any time of day. I’m middle aged with kids, I’m not loaning games to friends or trading games in.
It costs more of my time to drive to the shops to buy a game than I’d save over buying digital, and as you get older you understand that time is the most important thing you have.
I have 1 physical PS5 disc. Everything else is digital. I get the convenience factor. But after Sony just deleted over 500 movies that people bought from their library, I don’t trust Sony. So even preferring digital, I will never buy another digital product from them. I’ll still play wolverine and other exclusives, but I’m buying physical. And used, because fuck you Sony, you aren’t getting another cent from me. I’ve had every single console, including the vita and PS+ since the ps3, that recently got canceled when the stopped letting you stack membership.
