As a recent owner of the PS4, I've decided that for this generation I will either buy all my games in digital or in physical discs. I decided to do a breakdown of which is better, and thought I should share it with you guys so perhaps it can help you decide which is better. You do not have access to the entire library as you cannot remotely swap discs.
Verdict: I personally concluded that if money isn't the concern, digital download is certainly more convenient for not having to swap discs and allowing the access of your entire library for remote play. However, if you are more concerned about making a financially conscious decision, it seems to make more sense to buy physical discs as you can sell it later on when you beat the game; esp if it's a single player campaign orientated game. Another dynamic to factor in is that if you often bring your games to your friend's house to play on their PS4 or if you often lend your games, physical disc is also the preferred option.
So for myself, I've decided to go with physical discs as it's the better investment for your hard-earned money at a minor inconvenience of having to swap discs when I want to change the game.
With digital copies, you can always re-download your games whenever you want. This is one of the greatest advantages of buying digital copies of PS4 games, your PlayStation Plus subscription gives you access to crazy discounts. As good as owning games in digital format looks, there are also disadvantages and this is where owning physical game discs shines.
In some cases, you only need to add a little of cash to swap your pre-owned disc for a new game. Less space on HDD : For some of us with just GB of disk space on our consoles, buying physical copies seem to conserve that limited space better.
