PlayStation founder Ken Kutaragi says discs became "metaphor for 'owning' games", and that upset at their discontinuation is a "mentality issue"

Ken Kutaragi, the founder of PlayStation and architect of the first three PlayStation consoles, has said that people being upset about Sony's discontinuation of game discs is probably a "mentality issue". He understands it, he noted, but that doesn't make it "economically reasonable" for Sony to keep printing them.
