I don't get Sony argument at all the concept has been clear for decades in the art world. The game we purchase is just like a print of a painting and we own the print. They own the original and the artist still owns the copy right and can make more prints off that original. I can turn around and sell my print without selling the original.

  • Same with books. I buy a copy of the book, I don't buy "The Book". I purchase an item that contains a copy of the book and I own that item, but I can't claim that I wrote that book and that I have copy rights of it because I didn't buy the rights of it.

    We could do the same but you know, GREED.
