Like GameStop, EA finds going digital for PS4, Xbox One is good for its bottom line

The vast majority of gamers are still buying physical discs, but publisher Electronic Arts is finding that more people are starting to go digital.

In a conference call with investors yesterday, Electronic Arts chief operating officer Peter Moore noted that full-game digital downloads are performing well for the company on Xbox Live and PlayStation Network. Both Xbox One and PlayStation 4 now offer every retail game as a digital download on the first day of release, and that is encouraging more players to opt into downloading their games rather than driving out to the store.
