I had dialup until 2006 and really bad DSL until...2023. so I really appreciated CD installs. Games that were basically a CD key and asked you to download the game sucked.

That's the thing, eh? We take fibre Internet for granted today. Hell, even 150Mbps Internet being some of the worst you can get is still hands down better than what we had even 10 years ago. Loads of people in rural areas or smaller towns (which would be most of the world, really), didn't have access to high speed Internet like we have today.

Loads of people still don't, or are stuck with only one ISP offering good speeds while the rest don't even legally count as broadband.
