I like to OWN my games. I sometimes go back to them. Having them on disc makes them independant of my system, and not vulnerable to being accidently destroyed via a hard drive failure, accidental deletion, what have you.

Digital distribution sucks IMO. I'll take my disc any day of the week.
That's kind of an odd statement to make, given that Direct2Drive offers unlimited downloads of any game you've ever purchased, as does Steam.

I've gone through three different systems, wiped my hard drives countless times, uninstalled them all, etc. They'll be there as long as IGN and Valve are in existence. Same probably couldn't be said of DVDs, which I have a tendency to lose/scratch/set on fire.
