I assume you meant physical media is dead? But as everyone else in this thread is saying, fitting an entire game on one disc isn’t the problem. If you decide you don’t want to play GTA6 in the future, you can’t sell it. You can’t give it away to a friend. If you cant afford the full price of a new game, you can’t buy it used. If you lose your account, you’ve lost all the games you bought with it. A physical copy ensures none of the above is true because the disc acts as a DRM verification.
Back when the xbox360 was new, I would take discs to my friends house and play their console with them. Now I would have to bring my console with me even though they may have the same one. Also the consoles are twice as big now.

Yeah, I get all of that. Makes sense.
