With the end of physical PlayStation games looming, the need for clear digital ownership rights is more pressing than ever.
For its part, Sony believes your rights are very clear: you do not own your digital games, and it's unlikely you're stupid enough to believe otherwise. At least, that's roughly the argument the company's lawyers are presenting in response to a proposed class-action lawsuit.
Sony argues that its current customer-facing disclosures ensure that "reasonable consumers would not be misled" into believing they actually own their digital games. That's according to a Game File report (paid article link) citing an August 21 filing Sony's lawyers made in California's Northern District.
Owning in this context is such a relative term, I don't technically own my physical games still I can play it forever during my lifetime because nobody can stop me in reproduce datas on it: physical is important for this reason (excluding dumb editions with partial game on it, thanks to doesitplay.org for the info about that); digital rights are obviously needed but most of the commenters seems to ignore this argument.
