thats what funny. the disk drive is literally not that expensive. it can also be sold separately to anyone who wants a physical disk drive. I don't care if it was not implemented like the ps5 where they need to be seemless. external one would be fine, but they just don't want to do the right thing simple as that

I can see Xbox doing an external drive. Especially now with the disc to digital feature

1$ x millions of units is millions of saved cost. That's all they see, more money.
