Default Re: Digital Distribution and you

I believe in digital distribution but as a compliment, not a replacement. There are a lot of games out there I'd rather just download and play at a cheaper price and then forget about. However, I do like the idea of having hundreds of games over time. A collection. It means nothing, money-wise, but it has a certain niche value to me.

Now, if a digital distributor could find a way to capture that collection value, I'd be down. Kind of like how iTunes has made a way to feel like you have a music collection. Perhaps in software like iTunes that, even if you don't buy from iTunes, you can still upload into the software? An universal launcher or something?

Also, download speeds in America need to catch up with the rest of the world for this to ever be a possibility.
