  This would just pave the way to rampant game sharing/loss of sales though. 1 person buys a physical copy of a game and then just loans the install disks to 20 friends who all install it too for free.

      Yeh but none of that would work now in the internet age. There is literally nothing short of requiring the disk in the console/PC as DRM that would work.
