Has streaming made physical movies/music obsolete and will it happen to games?

Probably not.  There will always probably be some sort of physical media for those that really want it to some degree.  It will of course mostly go away, there's no reason it wouldn't, but the thing holding it back now is infrastructure as the USA has pretty shitty infrastructure that is WAY behind a lot of other countries right now because of terrible ISP's.  They've been fighting tooth and nail to keep people from having affordable and better internet because it's more profitable for them as it is right now.

The infrastructure is still bad, and a lot of ISP's in the United States have strict data caps still, and if it's cheap and without a data limit the quality is bad and often slow and buffers constantly, that is why I keep needing to replace my equipment

People will often times borrow TV and Internet from networks in my local area, since people have been stealing cable for years and years in my area, in which might be causing some issues with the local American infrastructure
