    Devils advocate here.

    I/O and storage in those media formats are kinda limited for video games.

    Blue-Ray prob has enough storage (at most we could go for multiple disk releases) capacity but still you would have to copy the games to disk.

    I think GOG is on right track on this DRM free keep on disk as long as you want no need to check with external servers to play them.

      I see a whole lot of theoretical “what if platforms did this or that,” when GoG is already doing it right. That’s the way.

      I see no problem with multiple discs tbh, also, we forget that thumbdrivers, sd cards, SSDs etc etc exist…
