"Just like video was supposed to have killed the radio star, EA Sports vice president Andrew Wilson is predicting the end of an era in how gamers shop for videogames. The future, he says, is in digital downloads, leaving brick-and-mortar storefronts like GameStop to either adapt and exist solely on the Web, or whither away and die."

The day there's no 'real/case' versions of games(or films and music) is the day I stop buying games and that starts to make me sad, really does because games etc are a good, big part of my life.

You've been warned entertainment makers! =P
