The Digital Meta-Game
A couple weeks ago, I blogged about the rise of and concern over used games online. There are noises in the game industry that the best way to counter old games on Amazon is to distribute more games online. (Note: one reader posted a corrective about the term "digital distribution," saying that games on disc are digital too. Good point. But "digital distribution" is now the accepted phrase for delivering content online, which is why we use it here).
Today, there's more fuel to the pixilated fire. One prominent analyst suggests that retail stores such as GameStop will also be threatened by an increase in online delivery. More here.
