Are you sure? Because last time I went to Target, they had a literal “bargain bin” of mainstream BluRay disks. i am talking dollars for a mainstream blockbuster. Maybe you should focus on convincing “the masses” that they should pay per game, because if the market is any indication, people prefer a fixed cost subscription service.
It’s okay, it isn’t the first time that the interests of “the market” are in opposition to one’s values and it won’t be the last.
Most people don’t have the same values as you seem to have. That doesn’t mean that either are wrong, but it does mean you might be tilting at the wrong windmill
That is cool for you, but I would argue you aren’t the “average consumer”. Buying physical games in antiquated for a lot of people. And I think the vast middle ground is where most consumers are. Use GamePass for a majority of games, and buy the physical copy for the ones worth replaying.
There is no indication that physical copies are dead. In fact, for all the impacts of streaming on movies, you can still buy physical copies of almost every movie.
This isn’t about killing “choice”, it is about giving consumers a different choice than the one you would make. But thankfully it isn’t zero-sum so you can still buy a CD custom wrapped in plastic
