If it was actually the consumers choice then Sony would continue offering the PlayStation with a disc drive and physical media since that is what the vast majority of consumers chose despite it costing more to purchase.

You can’t draw any conclusions on console sales alone. I also bought the disc version, despite predomenantly buying digital releases. It’s more expensive but not that much more expensive. The difference was in the ballpark 50 bucks or so. On a 500 to 700 euro or so purchase (by the time you add a controller, charging stand, games etc.) this is peanuts. I didn’t buy the disc version because I needed it for physical games, I bought it to have the option. For the record I hate that it’s going away. But i’d be lying if I said I didn’t get it.
