I got the disc version because I like options, and also because I own the PS4 Spiderman game on disc. But I haven't played that game in years, and I never actually go to the game store, or any department stores that sell games. Still, I like options.
It also is nice for that random night where you have a physical DVD to watch.
My friends wanted to do a Saw movie marathon, and one of them had all the discs. The PS5 was the only device I had that could play them.
Yeah that could be useful. We have a ridiculously expensive 4k DVD player that we bought several years ago. Back then our amp didn't pass through HDR video, and if we ran the video through the TV first and then out to the amp from the TV for the audio, then the audio would get compressed. So we bought a DVD player with 2 HDMI outs. We ran one to the TV for HDR, and another to the amp for uncompressed pure audio. Since then we've replaced the amp with something more modern that will pass through HDR, but we still use the DVD player since its pretty high-end.
Technology sure is great, isn't it?
The march of progress, and a limited budget, results in some pretty creative setups, that's for sure.
