I've seen a few users complain about "not owning" these digital games or express concerns about their digital library if any of these digital services go under. All valid concerns, but I'll blindly trust my digital overlords for the convenience."

    Eh I wouldn't call this convenience.... I couldn't pre-load bad company 2 on steam, and now the servers are overloaded while everyone is trying to download 5 GB of game data. If it was actually downloading at 500 Kb/sec it would take 3 hours, but at this rate it'll be tomorrow before it's down. Seeing how it would take me less than 30 minutes to drive to the store, buy it and then drive home, downloading this isn't exactly convenient.
