Physical vs Digital format: Which side are you on?

To gamers and people who like to play games (PC, Console and Handhelds – sorry no mobile gamers here), which format do you prefer?

In the past, games are stored in physical media, be it game cartridges, CDs, DVDs and BDs. Now with the Internet is getting faster and technology getting more advance than ever, now seems like digital media is the king.

That statement is backed by hard-evidences that today we have Steam, Epic Game Store, Nintendo eShop, PlayStation Plus, Xbox marketplace and many more that sells digital goods on top of the physical one, even for many, they sell only digital goods and no physical at all.

What’s more is with the recent introduction of game streaming services, more or less indicate that digital is the way to go. But if you can choose, which side are you on?
