News@lemmy.world•Sony lawyers argue that nobody is stupid enough to believe they actually own digital games, because then only one person could buy GTA 6
7·1 month agoThe problem with this argument was their short-sighted business model. They sold digital games for the same price as physical games.
If consumers are accustom to “owning” physical games, and then pay the same price for digital, of course they would assume they own those as well.
If instead you needed to buy a subscription to each game that came out, and they only charged $10/month for the latest AAA game, the “you don’t own it” argument would actually be reasonable.
That’s like news reports that just say something like:
Scientists discover water is wet, after utilizing $500k taxpayer-backed grant
Which is definitely intended to enrage people who won’t do any further research, or read what the study is actually about, and will instead spread the misinformation and distrust of the scientific community


That’s a nice unwrap
