Sony Says PlayStation Disc Backlash Not Making ‘Any Impact’ On Business

Sony said backlash over its plan to phase out physical PlayStation game discs is not currently hurting the business.

CFO Lin Tao noted that most game sales are already digital, reducing the impact of the shift.

Sony is also exploring retail alternatives such as boxed products that include download codes instead of discs.

The move could affect ownership, game preservation, retail distribution, and costs, while reflecting a broader industry shift to digital.
