Content

Digital media is fragile - perhaps the most fragile media format we have, considering how tightly controlled and whimsically removed it is thanks to corporate interests. As PlayStation users just got told they're losing tons of Discovery content they paid for, we have to examine the utter scam of digital ownership.

This is what could happen to WOTC against creators if there were no backlash or protest. For the content you want to keep, the license MUST be perpetual AND irrevokable, in order for the license to guarantee not to become void in the future. Else the company can randomly in the future decides to say "No you cannot use our product anymore". In situations like this, you're forced to either find an alternative or sail the high seas. I don't know why customers didn't protest this since its inception (other than video games), that I think it has always-on DRM or any form of mechanism that a company can remotely disable your purchased licensed content from being accessible at any time in the future, regardless if you yourself violate the license agreement or not. The same shit happens with Pantone (https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/28/fade-to-black/ ) and Vegas Pro (https://www.reddit.com/r/assholedesign/comments/wzym43/fuck_you_vegas/ ). The Pantone controversy is more closer to this Sony situation because the fucked customer have to deal with not one but TWO companies dictating the customer's access of purchased license content. Sony vs other movie companies, and Adobe vs Pantone.
