XBOX ONE S All-Digital Edition is Giving Me the Sweetest Taboo

[O³ (O cubed)]

Tbh I don't know where Microsoft is going with this.

As an owner of Xbox One S, two of the features I do use is backwards compatibility and the 4k bluray.

I also hope that they upgrade the wifi chip/ethernet modem with the one on the X console because the S' wifi is trash

is it really that hard to understand?

Y’all complain too much. It’s just another option for people who this would work for.

Not your thing? You don’t even have to think about it

 

[Just like bruddas]

I mean whats the point of buying the disc if you still gotta install shyt. I'll bust that digital move once i get a big enough HDD

 

[Trapperman Dave]

nikkas still using physical? Only time I buy physical is if the deal is too good to pass up. Ex Injustice 2 Legendary Edition was $60 digital but I got the physical version at GameStop for $25. Aside from those scenarios it’s all digital for me and been that way since I started playing on this gen.

I was buying physical but digital easier to manage

I'm wondering how this works for media. Like why would someone buy this console to play games and then have to buy another device to play movies? Or is that going digital also?

The market is going digital, is digital at this point

No but I have old boxsets of tv shows and movies that are in dvd format. Not everything is released digitally.

That's what nikkaz who care about box sets think, everything online man and available for free if you know how to look for shyt.

You buy dvds???

I buy 4K dvds all the time. (Most, if not all, come with digital copies as well)
There loads of info online about how 4K looks better on disc and the audio is much better.
I sent regular blu rays to the bushes though.
I stream all of that.

Blu-Rays and UHD Blu-Rays are the only physical media I own

I believe @Rekkapryde is the most qualified to answer this considering daddy Sony refused to put a 4K blu ray player in the PS4. :DAIGOCOURT:
Speaking of which.... @mannyrs13 do you have an XB1X? :DAIGOCOFFEE:

In regard to the OP...
This news shouldn't surprise anyone.
The future is digital.
Physical media is obsolete and is on its last legs.
For me, once the audio and video quality of 4K streaming improves I'm done with all physical media.
My disc collection is out of hand as is. All that wall space covered with book cases full of movies and games isn't appealing to me anymore.
I'll keep what I have because I'm a collector, but at this point I'm not interested in amassing any significant amount of more physical media.

I have the regular xbox 1. Which I barely use these days.

I see everyone's point that they going digital now but if only they would've told us that years ago before people stayed buying dvd.

But now it's not the same as the old transition. Like before it was easy to convert vhs to dvd. But do they have ways to convert dvd to digital? I'm guessing they must have some drm settings on the discs to prevent that. Even still it's not the same.

I agree with you on this. I'm not trying to add anymore physical dvd that's not necessary. Only reason would be as a collection. Like I have every Simpsons season boxset that was released. Obviously the whole digital thing didn't come until after so if they release more boxsets, I'm not gonna be like oh I might as well stop collecting halfway thru cuz I can get it digitally. Same with my Bond movie collection. Digital is cool and all but having physical is beneficial at times.

Damn shame I had a x1x before the hardcore larrybots on here
