I assume people were worried about them pulling an Xbox, especially since they are largely the same concept.
Its the same concept as a stub game disc which requires a full online install (something Xbox used for cross-gen one/series titles).
Its nothing like the account tied physical sales they proposed at the Xbox one announcement.
