All I wanted to say is that PoE is online only too. Multiplayer games are always going to be online only. I see no issue with that part. Single player games shouldn't be online only though.
I lack a DVD drive in my PC so buying a physical copy would mean I'd just have to download it anyway or come up with another solution (eg DVD image to USB but that would be against copyright and hence piracy).I don't care about having the box or media so why would I want to pay twice as much?
