    Hi! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

    Unfortunately there is no way to do that. You can not exchange a physical disc for a digital license.

    There is currently no official site to sell physical games.

    you can sell them to a game shop or privately sell them and put that money towards purchasing the digital versions.

    How Microsoft should handle Xbox One's DRM policy

    cant do it by option per disc.. would need to be 2 different medias... one being physical one being digital.. just totally eliminate any online sharing what so ever with disc based games... this will force people that want to share from the cloud purchase
    digital games... and ones that buy disc.s, well nothing will change for them... they can still carry the disc to a friends, trade in at gamestop, etc

    Deciding to go all digital. have a few questions.

    Games that i know i will never trade in or sell to a friend i buy digital. Games that im usure about or that i want to be able to trade/sell i buy physical.

    My Digital Collection:

    Forza 5

    Titanfall

    Destiny

    PVZ:garden warfare

    Physical:

    Ryze

    COD:Ghosts

    Watch Dogs

    All of the physical games i've bought i might as well have bought digital, I've done nothing with them, the discs are pointless. Just an annoyance of having to deal with them. Honestly i would play all 3 of them more but when I'm like HMM what do i want
    to play. Ill just load up a game i own digitally rather then find my Ryze or Watch Dogs disc.

    Upcoming games:

    Halo: MCC - Digital (maybe both cuz i want that lic. plate cover :p)

    Sunset Overdrive - Physical

    AC: Unity - Physical

    Evolve - Digital

    All you anti-digital people need to take off your tin-foil hats.

    partition for xbox one?

    I think you will be suprised at the amount of single player games there will be, for starters a lot of xbla games will be pre-dominately sp, with mp tacked on. And some seriously big games.

    -

    I could list a lot of mp games that have little or no server actiln anymore, and EA is a classic for that, especially their sports games, closing servers down, as soon as the next years release is out.

    Changing your physical disc into a form of digital media (i.e. upload it to the cloud), makes your disc null and void and basically a blank disc, unless MS tell you where, when and to who you can sell it, and that is a seperate conversation, embodied in
    others threads, but to suffice to say, it is my, yours, and everyone elses right under law, to sell that physical disc, in the condition you purchased it in, without the copyright holders permission. That is the point. If people want a digital game, then buy
    digital, they have already stated all games will be available on release day. But people want the price of physical, but the benefits of digital, and as far as i can see, physical benefits outweigh digital benefits.
