At this point it’s a pretty small portion.
Last quarter 85% of all game sales were digital.

They've also been pushing digital-only PS5s and PS5 Pro so there are fewer reasons to get a disk if you have no disk drive. They have created the problem that they are "solving."
Which you can explicitly buy a disk drive for, if that’s important to you:

They actually did a good job giving the consumer choices - it’s just customers didn’t choose physical media.
I wonder how many units the 15% represents, and what the percentage would be compared to number of sales in 2010.
Yeah, the percentage has got smaller, but the industry also got much bigger.
