And it's only going to get worse.  Sony has already announced that the
Playstation 5 will have a (probably) 1-2 terabyte SSD.  And even with that, the
game packaging is set up to support only downloading the single-player or
multi-player portions of a game because images are going to be pushing 100
gigabytes RSN (some are already well over 40gig).

So even with the download restructuring, we're probably going to be seeing a
lot of people downloading lots of gigabytes on Day 1 (or a few days before, for
games that support it), and re-downloading smaller (but still large) amounts
when they want to re-play the game...
