I understand if they stopped printing new blu rays / DVDs, but it’s outrageous and disappointing I can’t just buy the digital edition.
Is there an actual reason companies do this? Do they hate money or what?

does anybody even sell digital movies that you can download anymore? I thought they were all streaming sites now that you lose access to your content when they lose the license
Absolutely. Apple, Amazon, Google, Vudu, Movies Anywhere (off the top of my head).
What I recently learned is that some physical discs will come with download codes that can be used, once, on any of these services. I was gifted the Alien box set which was nice but I don’t have a Blu-ray player. The code allowed me to add the films to my iTunes account.
Now, how long I can watch those movies until a license runs out is another question. I’ve yet to find a way to download a movie to disc for backup. Because, technically, you don’t buy a movie, you buy the license to watch it. This is even the case for physical discs.
