PlayStation has spent months embroiled in controversy after announcing plans to axe physical game disc production from 2028. Boycotts, petitions, and lawsuits quickly followed, urging Sony to reverse course. When it became apparent that wasn’t going to happen, the conversation shifted towards digital ownership.
