lol "CD-ROM". Is this 2002? :p

I can't remember the last game on physical media that was on CD, not DVD. I think my last one was NWN 2 or Far Cry...in 2004.

Haha yeah I mean DVD (CD-ROM is just being reminiscing of old times), but its just digital vs. physical copy.

Yeah I think digital is the way to go. I mean I was worried when D2D was bought but it still allowed me to keep my games instead of losing them all.

In Diablo 3's case it is always connected online, so there's no benefit to buying a disc. Unless Blizzard patches that out down the road which I don't think will happen unless it's WAY down the road.
