Microsoft: Packaged goods business 'won't decline'
>> From mcvuk.com: [QUOTE] Microsoft has told MCV that it sees downloadable content and Xbox Live as a 'complementary' addition to boxed product - and that it doesn't see the packaged goods business declining.
However other standout companies have pointed to 2009's explosion of download-only new releases - which cut out retail altogether.
Speaking in MCV's investigation into the digital download sector, UK head of Xbox, Neil Thompson said: "People often ask me, 'Will Halo X be download only?' But I don't see the packaged goods business declining. What I do see is the growth of the download and digital content market - but it is complementary to boxed content and services. Wherever we can, we make sure retail is part of the Xbox Live ecosystem." [/QUOTE]
