True, but it's kinda sad if a person can't wait for a few days until the game can be shipped or until they can make it to the closest retailer.

You'd think it would be. But you were asking what's the advantage to the consumer. Now you are telling the consumer what to think. That's a whole nuther argument.
What if the store is out? Or what if you live somewhere that doesn't have a lot of stores? What if you just hate leaving the house?
Nobody ever got rich telling the customer to wait.

Sure it's a bit of a pain switching CD's/DVD's out and in all the time, but enough to make someone willing to go with a method that leaves you with no physical backup or protection for the day the game is no longer supported?

Most games don't have the long term replay value where this is even a concern. If you aren't going to want to play the game in six months, why do you care if the online support will quit working in twelve?
