User blog comment:Lost Labyrinth/EA to go 100% digital. What does this mean for The Sims series and players?/@comment-3562935-20120821215625

What is the gain for EA from this? After all, atleast 3/4 of EA game sales are from retailers. I dont believe it would be the best action for The Sims players, as that would mean you would HAVE to have a fast internet to download the game within a week. And EA suffers from this as it would restrict their sales to people who one, have a good enough internet and two, people who are prepared for the download which even the best home internet, takes atleast 6-12 hours. It would be much more beneficial to the company and players just to remain a Co-operative sales market.
