Apparently there will be some boycott of PS in regards of decision to discontinue disks.

From 23 to 30 of August.

Technically pirated games can be put on a physical media and stored indefinitely, neither do those require online connection afterwards, so Sony cant just remove those and Sony won't be getting any money or user metrics for it either.

While not a perfect solution, it's a decent stopgap and will get more people on board than fully abstaining.

    Likely never will. The PS4 is still hard to jailbreak, and even harder to play pirated games on. Not to mention that if you do it you can’t connect it to the internet or you’ll have your entire PSN account banned.

    Same with Xbox - still to this day uncracked and not playing pirated games 13+ years later.
