To be honest I like steam. - Cloud library where you can keep most of games instead searching your house for one disc.
However, I like old school boxes. It always makes me happy to keep a product in own hands. That’s why when i buy some “exclusive game” Like WarCraft, Diablo, Tomb Raider or now GTA V [PC]. I always must have it in box.
What’s more about steam. I bought a phisical copy of Tomb Raider which have a steam key activation anyway. After 2 years when there was promotion “Tomb Raider Collection - 11 Games Included” the EULA says that when you double a product, that product will be overwrited to your library. So, in otherwords I was robbed from my original copy that I have spend 25 ponds.
If I had a 2 phisical copies without DRM, I rather could give one copy to a friend (for example). - That’s more logic, don’t you think? (I payed for them anyway).
I like the CD Projekt marketing idea. They said they will be selling Witcher 3 without any DRM. Not because they don’t afraid of piracy. They said that because, even if they make DRM. The game will be hacked in next 3 hours. They also said that, they also were a “pirates” in their past-life, and if they product will be worth of buying… people will buy it.
