It is not easy considering the cost associated with logistics of selling physical games when no one buying.

However moving towards digital with no clear plan for how you can own a digital game for ever instead of subscription is not right.

I think legislators need to find a way to force companies to provide an alternative to subscription based model where an individual can buy, resell and share or transfer the games.
