I have an Xbox One and I prefer digital over discs because I get annoyed by swapping discs each time I want to play a different game, as a result I'm less likely to play multiple games at a time if I stay physical. I'm more likely to play multiple games at a time if they were digitally downloaded, making more use from my money spent on games. I'm so used to PC gaming and most of my PC games are digital except the really old ones (pre-Steam era) which I don't even bother playing anymore. I don't really care about reselling my console games. I mean, who would want to buy last year's sports game when this year's sports game is out and I would only get a few dollars or very little store credit trading a last years sport games in stores?
Now here is the problem: I have a limited 250 GB Internet but I don't know if it's enforced, however the speed is adequate for downloading large games and watching movies in HDX but I still want to go digital on my XBox One. I read that some people installed the game from disc and then purchased a digital license for that game do be able to play it without the disc. I was considering buying Xbox games used or renting them just to install them so that I don't have to download them, saving my internet usage, and then purchasing a digital license through the Xbox Store and then reselling the used games or returning the rentals. Is it worth going digital this way, just to stay under my internet's capacity limit? Does this work for all Xbox One physical games, I read someone did this for Titanfall to purchase a digital license without downloading the game)? Is it a waste of money? Am I better off risking exceeding my internet cap just to save the hassle? Also someone else pays for the internet in my household.
