                Because Steam is famous for selling physical media?

                    Because steam at least listens to their customers

                  They will if they pirate them. Which is really the only logical way to handle this shit that the console makers are doing.

                    So do not buy them. If sales fall enough, they will bring back physical media. If you keep buying no matter what they do, of course they will keep doing it.

                        It is morally OK to pirate and emulate Sony games.
