        Then the majority of people will get shafted. Nothing new under the sun, I guess.

          They were already getting shafted, by your definition, as they were already buying digital only games.

          Unfortunately. The market chose convenience over consumer rights. We no longer own anything and can have it taken away at any time.

      Oh no! Anyway…

      EDIT: Just to be clear, I am not dismissing OP. I’m saying “fuck Sony” and “this would be a good time to convert to PCmasterrace or go retro”
