BrainBank: Why Won't It Die Edition

Why do people still buy games in boxes? Free the games from their boxlike coffins! Okay, so maybe you can't trade them back in, but I'll take the ridiculous convenience of digital purchases over padding Gamestop's profit margins any day.

80-90% of games are still bought on disc, according to some sort of survey with some sort of level of credibility.

I'm going to choose to believe these numbers are wildly inaccurate, though, because Steam deserves at least 30%.
