The issue isn't that the game doesn't fit on one disc. The issue is that without a disc, the games can't be resold, rented, or lended. The disc is effectively a DRM check.

    Unless the entire game is provided, then it will always be a DRM check. If they're just providing data for a preliminary download, then the buyer is still left to rely on being give access to download the rest of the data.
