    i mean…you could always buy the add-on disc drive? Assuming that it is still compatible with the Pro, not sure why it wouldn’t be. They get to fleece physical media heads for an extra $80, that’s a win for Sony.

      I did not know that was a thing and I absolutely would buy one. Thank you.

        awesome! just double-check that it’s compatible with the new one before dropping the extra $80! Nothing about the Pro is official yet, so we still gotta wait and see.

      Ehhh if most people don’t care about the disk, then i guess good they don’t need to pay for it. Reduce waste

      But i bougtht the console for the disk feature and use it as media center.

      I bet that hardly anyone buys the add on drive and they use that as a reason to completely drop physical media support in the PS6.

        Why wouldn’t they? Something like 93℅ of game sales are digital already. Physical games are almost extinct.

          Oh I agree they should. Physical game sales are a PITA.
