You all remember just a few weeks ago when Sony ripped away a bunch of movies and TV shows people “owned”? This ad is on Amazon. You can’t “own” it on Prime. You can just access it until they lose the license. How can they get away with lying like this?

It’s not digital though. When you bought any physical media you purchased a license to view the content. You never owned the media on the disk cause that is the studios IP.

You have always owned your individual copy of the media on the disk!

Again, quit falling for the propaganda.

This is like saying I don’t own my car because it’s the manufacturer’s IP.
