Will Sony's PlayStation 4 have Blu-ray? Someone thinks not. {Engadget HD}
Sep 16th 2008 4:49PM I think this is very possible which is bad for most of us. Movie studios have shown that they would love to have no physical media anymore. They don't want us buying movies cheaply, they want us to rent and pay each time. Downloading/streaming is perfect for their greed.
I can see how games will eventually go that way too, but it doesn't seem as practical.
Downloading eliminates the used (ebay) market, eliminates media overhead, and certain eliminates the high price of a drive in the console. However downloading a 4GB game (or 8GB whatever it might be in the near future) seems like a big P.I.T.A.
Then again, loading a whole game on the PS3 hard drive is a P.I.T.A too and they do that.
