Rejected petition Make the cost of digital downloads for games and movies cheaper

The cost of digital downloads for console games and movies should be cheaper than a hard physical copy i.e disc form as it is impossible to re-sell and also reduces the amount of waste for creating physical copies.

More details

I recently purchased a video game on my Xbox console that was £49.99 in digital form, but it was £39.99 in physical form which enabled me to re-sell it in the future and also the manufacturer costs for creating such products would be less if more people were inclined to buy digital versions
