EA: digital sales will eventually overtake boxed games
"There will come a point, whether it is two or three years from now, when we say 'we are doing more in digital media now than we are in physical media,' and it's clearly ... not far away," Moore said.
Reuters points out that EA's expected packaged goods revenue for the fiscal year ending March 2013 is $2.6 billion, with digital products expected to bring in $1.7 billion, while its digital revenue increased by 55 percent in the first quarter of that year.
Moore insisted that boxed media will stick around for a while, saying "we will never abandon physical media. As long as the consumer wants to buy something on a disc, we will be there to offer it."

Lucky I only have the 20GB lol.
haha i had the Slim though and i don't have much on the hard drive, just a couple cd's and a few games and the gamesaves.
On mine I have like, 7 full games, which take up so much space.
I have the 250GB but this would still take alot of space
wait what would take a lot of space...?
The digital games on my hard drive
