If games came with a burn feature, that allowed me to burn copies of my digital copies – i would be more likely to sign on board – I probably wouldnt stop buying retail discs, but I have bought a number of computer games as digital downloads, and am completely fine with those purchases so far. However for me to fully sign on – I need a way to have active access to the game without holding 5,10,20, who knows how many gigs of space for eternity or re-downloading that 5,10,20 gig download all over again if I decide to give it another spin in a month.

Imagine a friend saying “hey man I saw you have Gears of war 32 on your gamercard, lets get a game going” and you're response is – “ok sure, ill join you in an hour or two after i re-download it, I had to make room for Barbie Horse Adventures 27.”
