    They could still remove it if they wanted to.

    For example push an update so your console can’t read certain games when they lose license. Or simply break backwards compatibility in specific ways.

    I guess the games I really like are all digital. Games like Slay the Spire, Rimworld, Balatro, etc. I know that the data is sitting there in my hard drive. I can copy it, move it, delete it, etc whenever I want.

    I honestly haven’t included a disc reader in my PC builds for over a decade. I guess on Xbox it’s different because Microsoft has more control. But again, if they wanted to take away the games they could do it either way.

    If that’s main reason, I don’t see the point of continuing disc use
