Ubisoft - Retailers can participate in the digital market

"I think there's a way that retailers can participate in the digital market. They have to choose to do that, they have to work to do that, it's an evolution. And unfortunately like any market force if people don't evolve they can be left behind." - Ubisoft's Chris Early

With the way things are right now, GameStop has shown how to be successful with this. If we get to consoles that are download only and block used games, I'm not sure what retailers could do.

I would rather pay less ($60 is outrageous for a new game) but i do like the fact that i can find older games that are out of print used in the stores.

I've seen them sell DLC codes but aren't they the same price as you buy them online? So how do they make money?
