@ecurb7 Digital is not a little cheaper. It's vastly cheaper. And of course the mode of delivery matters. What are you on about?

@Th3solution You probably don't play that much. Because some PS Plus titles are only available for a while. I have tried to play some games that were a PS PLUS title until Sony decided it wasn't. And that is exactly one of the many issues with digital content. Sony will decide whether you will have access or not. Even if you pay, the content never belongs to you. But Sony and the publishers make a lot of profit from them. Just for the sake of fairness, it would be justified for Sony to lower the prices.

@ecurb7 Digital is of course cheaper. When you buy digitally, you receive a copy. No files are truly transferred. And this copy immediately gets downloaded to your playstation. Sure, there are costs to store the games. But I am sure it's very cost-efficient. And not nearly as expensive as having to make discs and distribute those discs. So please, you sound like you are in denial.

@mrraditch Sure, but the point was made that people have options like not buying or opting for discs. And my point is, that that doesn't play any part in arguments against complaining. Consumers should complain. Most of the time that helps with getting offers from companies. I have witnessed that myself.

@Rob_230 Fair enough. But never say never. It's very rare for cases like these to happen. So we should all keep hope that it will have some positive effects for the consumers.

@NinjaNicky I think a lot of you fanboys can't seem to comprehend that as a consumer you have the right to complain about the prices. Whether you are justified or not can be argued or like this be fought out in court. This is a good thing for all the consumers. Why are you defending Sony? You do realize that Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo are charging you too much?

@GamingFan4Lyf @GamingFan4Lyf It's a class action. The costs will be shared. And if they win, the costs can be charged to Sony.

@Wakozako I hate to break it to you, but here goes. You are exactly the reason why Sony can get away with raising prices like they do. And you also seem to be ignorant on the fact that companies like Sony are trying real hard to limit physical media. At one point, you won't be able to purchase discs. Then what? Yes, one can stop buying Sony games. But guess what? When people like me opt out and people like you keep paying, eventually all the costs will be tasked on people like you. I wonder how long you will last without the aid of consumers like me? I can assure you, not long.

@Rob_230 It's like you want them to fail. Why? This will be beneficial for consumers. Perhaps this lawsuit will force Sony to contain their greed a little. That's a good thing. How anyone can be so pessimistic about this is beyond me.

@TheCollector316 Yes, you can still buy physical games. But eventually you won't be. You probably lived in some cave and aren't aware that currently companies like Sony are doing their best to diminish physical media. So that leaves you with one place to buy Sony games. And yes, one can opt out, but that still doesn't mean that Sony can do what they want. As a consumer, you have the right to complain about the prices. A lawsuit like this will force to Sony to take the consumers seriously. Anyone defending Sony in this matter are part of the problem.
