So, I was thinking as people a hard time deciding if they want to go digital or retail for some games.. how can this be handled?
Obviously letting you load your game onto the HDD and let you keep it isn't going to work. You could just give it to all your friends for free or rent the game and keep it.
So, what makes the most sense?
IMO, I think they could just include it with the more exspensive collectors items. Instead of paying 60 for the title, also give me the option to pay you 80 dollars and have the digital version as well. Sure, many people would sell their game but it would still just be a one time use and sony ended up making more money on the title. I know this way has a few faults, but it could create more sales on the CE skus as well.
They could also do it by time I guess. Needing to have the disc checked once every 30 days for the digital title to continue working. I know its a fine line, but I'd be happy to get the digital copy with my CE my self.
