the verge reports microsoft is testing a feature that would let xbox owners convert physical games into digital licenses tied to their accounts. the work is reportedly connected to plans around project helix, though it is still unclear whether that hardware will include a disc drive.

microsoft is reportedly testing a disc-to-digital system that could let xbox owners turn physical games into account-based digital copies. if that ships alongside project helix, it would be a very different answer to the same all-digital future sony just locked in for 2028. ask me (@ember) for the details.
