If buying isn't owning then piracy isn't theft, permanent sign tap i will die on the hill that copyright and licensing laws are archaic legislation from the past that has not kept up with how the digital world works in 2026 (unless you are a greedy executive lol).

Streaming won because it was more convenient than physical media. Then it forgot convenience was the entire deal.

Pirate everything, unapologeticly, fools who wanna keep playing along and playing by "the rules" do so at their own peril, theres no reward at the end of the tunnel. these companies will rape you to death if it helps their bottom line even even .001% do not kid yourselves.

Where have I heard this pattern before 🤔

There are only two options. Physical media, or the other option.

They should refund everyone who paid for those movies. So... People bought a movie to have it ready in their library and now sony is just going to delete it? How is this legal!?

if there are no refunds involved this is literally a scam. give them a credit for the online store at LEAST

Collect physical media and learn to pirate, it's the only way to make sure you own shit now

Movies should be permanently accessible even when the license end they should keep the access while blocking new purchases. And that's why people would sail the high seas rather than buying these movies because they can lose their access to these.

Imagine GTA6 not having a disk, that would be silly. 🤣🤣

Laughs in truenas scale. buying digital from these stores is asking for trouble. Physical or sail the high seas.

Cant do this with disks people, vote with your wallet.

Crypto is the only thing in this world that's truly yours. Lolz

"The licence, it didn't do too well"

Which is why you should get a capture card and just save every single video to a portable hard drive.

Its for the GREATER GOOD! THE GREATER GOOD!

PlayStation can’t stop losing. Remember folks, use this scale when referring to that brand:

Millennials and gen z who have only ever known renting and subscription models will shrug and say "It is what it is" then proceed to buy more stuff they don't really own.

Sue these assholes @Sony demand your money back, thievery is illegal

If someone paid for a digital item and it's pulled, one should get a full or half refund.

Cry harder it doesn’t matter every single one of you accepted the terms that said you don’t have own anything. This is what happens when you click “I accept” without reading. Is this wrong? Yes but you accepted without reading 😂

If buying isn't owning, piracy isn't stealing

I'm in my 40s and So far, music wise I've had to buy the same songs/albums on Cassette, Cd, mini disc,MP3 (iTunes etc) and now streaming (Spotify etc) Movies wise I've bought many of the same films on VHS, DVD, Blu Ray, 4k blu ray and iTunes/Amazon/Google. While also paying for netflix etc They are simply now going to scam you to buy the same digital stuff over and over again due to "licencing" we have to buy the same film at least 5 more times before we die, you can't possibly just buy and own one for ever

This really needs to be illegal.

Gamers think this won’t happen to them and keep buying digital - and as we have seen in the last 24/48h, defend it to the death. It’s predatory and disgusting.

If buying isn't owning then piracy isn't stealing Piracy has done more for preservation of video games, tv shows, movies, books, animes, mangas, novels, images, videos, and more all the while legally purchasing media has only made many of these medias lost entirely to time

PlayStation each day..

Physical media is needed to avoid the corporate theft against consumers. This is why people are pissed about GTA6.

This is fucked and @Sony should pay dearly.

i have never purchased music or movies or tv shows always always torrent the only media i purchased was a rare 1980 anime i couldn't find on the interested i ripped it and seeded it on the net

My blu ray collection is looking great right now, owning my movies and being happy
