EMA - video games to remain mostly packaged goods to at least 2015
“Digital distribution certainly will be a significant part of the entertainment industry in the future, but our predictions are that packaged media will continue to dominate the home video sector until 2015 at least.” - Bo Andersen, President and CEO of the Entertainment Merchants Association
I don’t know that there will ever be a time where retail is completely phased out, and we purchase our games through digital distribution. Then again, I didn’t expect digital distribution to get so big so quickly!
