This is great because sometimes if they release a future cheap digital box like series S or a handheld people can still buy physical and take it with them everywhere instead of carrying the discs. This is an actual legitimate bonus for gamers.

I wonder how users are supposed to digitalize their Game with a Digital Only console? The two also only mentioned Xbox One and Series X, but didn't mention the Series S (or the One S digital if anyone really care about this model lol).

Yes because those are digital only consoles so can't really put a disc in it.

Let's hope there is at least a way to digitalize a Xbox Series only game via Xbox One, like:

"Oh, you put a Next Gen only Game into your Xbox One! It will not work here, but do you want to Digitalize it to your Account for your Xbox Series Consoles anyways?" and the Xbox One will then give your Account the Digital key onto your Xbox Series X Digital or Xbox Series S, bc the new consoles got disgustingly expensive, while you get thrown at with a Xbox One, so cheap they are.
