Apparently some lawsuits have started on Sony’s potential price-fixing of all games on their platform since they’re now the only retailer. Before anyone gets excited, these are probably going nowhere, but it’s neat that something is happening. The idea seems similar to the Epic vs Apple/Google lawsuits.

    Most people are ok with not owning copies of movies or music when they are easily and readily available for super cheap whenever they want them. Games are much the same these days. Habits and priorities have changed.

      Habits haven’t changed. They were changed. Big and essential difference. And the newer generations don’t even know the other side anymore. Other have to cope/adapt/boycott. Also movies and such are not always available. Unless you have accounts everywhere.

      With piracy, yes. I enter a movie or series name, wait 1-2 minutes and watch it in 4k…legally? Nah.
