Does anyone else miss actually having physical copies of Sims games?

The fewer things that do nothing but gather dust on a shelf, the better.
Also, ecology, saved time and money: no fuel/fare on traveling to shop or postage (and fuel spent by the delivery service) for having the physical item delivered to you. No plastics and paper the packaging would take (the DVD, the case, the text on it, the box/wrapper in case of mail delivery, the receipt).

Digital all the way. Not just with games, but with e-books as well.
