Sure. Until the first FromSoftware PS6 exclusive is released.

People realize that Steam doesn't use physical media, right? The real issue is the lack of consumer friendly regulation, not the medium.

I've been using Steam for 15 years and in that time they have never done me wrong. I trust Valve to do the right thing.

On the other hand, I know for a fact that sony will do the worst possible thing over and over again every time they have the chance to.

Remember that time Sony took away features from the PS3 that were advertised selling points? Remember when modders added the features back and Sony sent them to prison?

Some people like disc cases and the actual disk itself, but the main gripes I've seen with digital only games on consoles were: 1) without a disc you can't give/trade/sell the game, 2) without a disc the game can be taken away from you, 3) if you can't make an offline backup copy of the game and transfer it from console to console, most/every copy of a game will eventually disappear.

Steam has issues, and you certainly can't (legally) trade or sell your library, but nearly no single player games on the platform have DRM. Thus, you can have as many off-Steam backups as you want (which can't be remotely deleted/disabled), and you could certainly "give" the game to a friend (but don't copy that floppy), or otherwise preserve it for posterity.

Steam provides awesome services tho. PSN is utter shit.
