I don’t think “digital” is the issue. Main difference is how we’ve transitioned from owning stuff to renting everything as a service. With all its ups and downs. You can’t lend it to your friend, at some point there’s going to be licensing issues and you can’t re-watch or listen something anymore, it’s just gone. Occasionally there will be hiccups. Everything is jam-packed with spying, advertisement/manipulation and restrictions.

Digital on its own is kinda nice?! I like e-readers, mp3-players, the comfort of email compared to hand-writing a letter and then not having the correct amount of postage at home. I replaced the cassette deck in the car with a digital radio a long time ago. And now I don’t need to bring any 12 volume audiobooks anymore. That’s all very nice and convenient in the right way.
