I prefer cd/dvd over digital downloads.
One reason is what others have said, and that's the box art and everything included in it besides the game (maps, posters, manuals etc.). Why download all that and print it yourself wasting ink and time while you already have it professionally made for you?
Second reason is safety. As we all know there is no such thing as 100% security on a pc. You can have all the hardware and software firewalls you want but if someone REALLY wants to get into your pc, they will find a way.
Third reason is reliability. I will admit that I have never done a digital download for a game before but what if the power or your internet connection goes off while downloading? I don't know what other people do but I don't want to spend another few hours downloading gigs of a game from the start again.
Thanks for the replies everyone. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one!
To Herrick: I don't own an Xbox so I can't compare the two versions but since the changes are mostly in the gameplay, and they are minimal, if you're going to try out the pc version in hopes that it will be better, you'll probably be dissapointed. The graphics though are fantastic. The atmosphere is beautiful. It has the light glow that Sands of Time had to give it that fairytale look and feel to it. Just think of KOTOR with Sands of Time graphical look to it....OH YEAH.
To HardcoreKiller2: I have tried the first Neverwinter Nights. It was good in the first few hours but then it just got so difficult to me. Maybe I wasn't playing it right but I'd like to give it another shot. I also tried the first Baldurs Gate and I had the same problem. Again, I'd like to try those two again.
To Darth Killer: Your list is looking good!
Hopefully Bioware will straighten up and give Jade Empire the attention it gave KOTOR in a sequel. Here's to hoping....CHEERS!
