Indiana Jones’s and Doom are both stub disks. If Sony can use two disks you can too!

It's not expensive. I've never paid more than $10/month for ultimate. Every holiday season there's deals on cards and I stock up for the year.
Even if it was considered cheap, why subscribe to a rotating library that you may or may not enjoy when you can buy your own and enjoy they at your own leisure whenever you want. I guess if you want to buy it for a month and play a specific launch title on it it makes sense - Digital renting.
Because for about $500 I got to play all of the games on this list, and this doesn't include several dozen other games I tried but didn't play for long.
Most of these I wouldn't have bought if I didn't have access to them in a library.

I play like 3 long games and a handful of short games per year. I'm not sure how anyone except a teenager would have the time to play most of these. That's not a dig, I just truly don't understand where the time comes from.
If I played those 32 games an average of 20 hours each (I never 100% games) over 4 years it's an average of 26 minutes a day. What's your breakdown of activities that imagining someone doing for 26 minutes a day would vs. wouldn't trigger you to respond with incredulity? What's the threshold of number of minutes?
Does a hobby consuming 26 minutes a day still seem unreasonable or did you not take a minute to do some simple math? If you didn't think you had enough variables to do the math, you still felt like you had enough info to comment? And could you not imagine someone, out of the billions of people in the world, having a different lifestyle than yours?
Jesus Christ, calm down. I thought that was in one year.
Even in a year that isn't outrageous for a hobby you enjoy. Some people ride, some hike, some paint, some read, some go to the gym. I've got a friend that spends 2 hours a day in the gym somehow, and my wife reads almost 2 hours a night.
8 hours sleep, 8 hours work, 8 hours "free time". Take away 5 of those hours doing important life things and you've still got 3 hours a day to pursue your hobby. Even if you only play an hour a day you could do at least half or more of those games.
That's more expensive than free.
