Neither does Sony (anymore), apparently. They still sold them.

and redefined the terms of "sold" in their contract to mean "rent, with a one-time fee"

it is more immoral to sell something you can't legally "sell" (permanently and irrevocably transfer ownership of a product), than to pirate that content (which has no level of expected payment)

Sony sold them while they still had the license with a clause that they could remove them at any time.

  • Yep. That's the argument.

    People don't like that though. We should change the laws so that is illegal. We can just make laws we want--we're allowed to do that.
