I'd take that in a heartbeat. Because guess what that means? It means I'd no longer suffer from the physical disabilities that make real life miserable. I'd no longer get sick like I am right now. Distance would no longer be a factor in relationships.

There's an episode of the Netflix show Black Mirror that sort of reflects this, one of the few that didn't show the super dark side of things because it had a semi-good ending. The idea that older people on the verge of death could have their consciousness preserved in a virtual world so when their physical bodies died they could live on and all that. I'd love nothing more, to be perfectly honest.
