Wasn't it something about Utada's Music and Copyright or so? I remember someone saying that, don't quote me on that though.

That's a theory. No one's really 100% sure why they waited to go digital. At first people assumed it was a Disney thing, but that didn't end up being the case.

Nah, it wasn't Utada or Disney. 100% believe it was all an issue with Square Enix themselves.

I don't understand why the games (on the PS3) weren't released digitally in the first place. I mean, it's just so easy these days.

Well, it's not like the PS3 games came out like...yesterday. Maybe they didn't think it was worth it really.

Nomura Comments On Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep's Absence On PSN - Siliconera

"The problem does not lie with Square Enix, Disney or Hikaru Utada who performed the game’s theme song. "It’s difficult because of a reason I cannot say," Nomura explained. Nomura says he is thinking about how to make a downloadable version available, but he needs more time."

Maybe is the same reason as to why we didn't got the PS3 ones on PSN, although I wonder why he "can't say it". Something to do with piracy perhaps? even though they had no problems to release all of their other Final Fantasy titles on PSN prior of the KH PS3 collections' releases...
