During the PS3/PS4 gen, I primarily bought physical copies for practical reasons. Low download speeds and low storage space meant that wanting to play a game could have meant waiting 3 days, and deleting a game that would require another 3 days of waiting if I decided to play it.
It got a lot easier with an external drive. Plenty of space to keep everything downloaded, but still not very practical.
Now at my current home, I can download games in 10 minutes. Which is a major change.
There are still some pros and cons to both physical and digital. The sales are often better for physical copies. The convenience is great for digital.
As of late, I've been opting to repurchase digital games on sale. Bloodborne and God of War, as they were less than $10 each. At least I've been doing it with games I love, games I don't have quite as much interest in, I will just leave as a physical copy.
