The Wii came out in 2006 and all my discs still work fine. But me thinks this missing the main point people are mad. People are fine with digital only for the most part, but they don't trust Sony to do the right thing. For instance, I wonder if all the games I bought for the PS Vita and PS3 will be available in 5-10 years. With physical media I at least have the option of going to a retro game store and buying a copy.

Incidentally, I've recently started collecting DVD and Blu Ray. I've found unopened copies of some of my favorite movies at thrift stores for a few dollars. It is nice to know I can watch a movie without figuring out which streaming service it is currently on or having to connect to the internet. Plus, if I had friends, I could loan them a copy.
