So I was reading this article on IGN that talked about digital copies of music, films etc and comparing it to physical copies.

The guy writing the article is obviously a big supporter of digital, saying it allows him to save space due to not needing to put physical copies somewhere.
Now what are your views on digital vs physical???
I like digital but I don't think it will replace actual copies. Some people mention it is better for the environment etc and admittedly I agree with that but you also have problems.
If your hard drive get's corrupted your screwed and unless your allowed to re-download the film/game/song for free again your going to have to pay for it. If you get bored of the game/song/film you can't exactly trade in a digital copy can you.
This is why I prefer physical copies, because you can trade it in if you do get bored of it, it also gives me a sense of satisfaction knowing I have an entire collection of films and CDs and if they get damaged you know it's your own fault.
