I’ve given you all the stats but you obviously aren’t reading them. Or do you not understand?
Now you have a choice. Be a better person and apologize or continue to be a toxic fuck.
I’ve spelled it out to you and provided sources. Where you so resistant to evidence?
Are you a bigot?
I’m waiting for your apology.
If you are going to have a conversation about it at least do some research.

Those Stats end in q42025 but this year’s stats are widely reported to be 85% digital. Any disagreement that can be solved with a 15 second internet search doesn’t sit well with the person that started it (you).
I think you need to reflect on your attitude.
Do you think you need to be so toxic? Genuine question.
Digital games are cheaper for people buying them because it is cheaper to produce and distribute than a disc, that’s a basic law of economics.
85% of console game buyers agree.
That’s pretty much what has been the case since the release of PS5, you pay a 50% premium to have a disc drive on your console and the disc games cost a lot more.
You can easily download a game in minutes Vs finding a physical copy online, ordering it and waiting for it to arrive.
It’s obviously a lot cheaper to distribute a game online rather than using discs.
85% of PS5 game sales are digital with physical game sales reduce year on year.

By all means people should be able to keep their disc drive but you have to accept these days it is an expensive luxury.
This is specifically only for cloud services provided by e.g. Amazon to financial institutions.
It’s an extension of existing powers already applied to the companies that handle financial data.
So… Not only is the BoE the right people to to it, they are probably the only people with the expertise to do it.
