I'm all for these lawsuits etc but people need to wake up to the fact they don't own anything digital, it's been this way for years now so no excuses.
If it says "buy", then I should own it. Anything else is a lie and demands justice.
You did buy something, a digital license that comes with it's own terms.
I agree with you by the way but it's been 20 years and people still act surprised about this stuff.
I know it's like the people who get mad at me when they get hit with my chainsaw and it's like "look wrong or right I've been out here swinging these chainsaws while wearing a blindfold for 24 years you need to get used to it"
I agree with all the replies I'm getting but people are literally going round in circles with the outrage over digital licenses.
Buy physical, backup your media, download illegally or do what you need to do to show businesses that things need to change.
