Not just the disc drive (Gaming)

A 4K bluray drive doesn't cost 100 bucks.
Dammit, fuck off with all this bullshit to try to edge us into abandoning physical media.
I think it's a combination of two things:
1. I've heard that Blue ray has legal stuff you have to pay for outside of the hardware, like a licensing fee.
2. Just because the disc drive is the only thing they are removing doesn't mean they aren't marking the digital PS5 down just to compete with Xbox.
So would you still be pissed if it was $50 disc drive + $25 license fee + $25 markdown?
