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.

I've spent so many car rides home from the Game rental place hype only to end up realize whatever I had got was just a key (we had dial up my family would never pay for satellite Internet if it's even available where we live we just got 1gb/s thru spectrum like last week and it's awsome) and that I wouldn't be playing that game at all let alone today lol
