Sony says Mythbusters and more Discovery TV shows are going away whether you bought them or not
You're viewing a single thread.
Buying is owning, though. In this case, you own a license to access Sony's media on several conditions.
That's not real ownership. If they can come in and take the stuff you bought away at any time, you don't own it. If you own something, you should be allowed to make a copy of it and share it with your friends.
You own a limited access license. It's not a hard concept to understand.
(Media) corporations want to screw you over and extract as much money as possible out of you, it's not a hard concept to understand.
I agree. What you're saying doesn't contradict me at all.
The arguments you provided earlier are the exact same arguments a media corporation would make. I know that technically you own a restrictive af license to watch the content, but in reality, it's pretty hard to call this ownership. Corporations hate the concept of people owning stuff. If they can sell this restrictive garbage as ownership, they can set a new standard and use it to further destroy ownership of media. The saddest part is that it works. Best Buy already plans to stop selling Blu Rays. This is the beginning of the destruction of freedom and media ownership. We really shouldn't be arguing over this minor BS, instead, we should all agree that piracy is absolutely justified when media corporations keep getting greedier and greedier.
Description isn't advocacy. I'm not "making an argument" because there's no argument to be made. It's a fact that Sony only sells limited access licenses on the Playstation Store. Yeah, we can both agree that it's BS and pirating is better, etc., but putting out misinformation that people ever owned that media to begin with accomplishes nothing.
misinformation that people ever owned that media
Obviously you don't own the rights to a movie you buy on Blu Ray, but you own a copy of it. And you are free to do with it whatever you want. No one can take your Blue Ray away because you are the sole owner of that copy of the movie. When buying movies online, this is not the case. Practically, you don't own anything as it can be taken away from you at any time.
Two things can simultaneously be wrong.
Interestingly enough in this case only one thing is wrong:
You
ROFL… whatever you say kiddo.
I think what they're saying is the meme makes logical sense even if both things are wrong. The contrapositive (a logical equivalent) is "if piracy is stealing, then buying is owning". That's a statement that I bet you agree with and it means the same thing.
Piracy is stealing. Period.
Nothing is stolen in digital piracy.
Cool. So developers should just stop paying their programmers because some random kid on the internet thinks it should all be free for the taking.
Go read a dictionary. 'Stealing' has a specific meaning. You can call it copyright infringement. But it's not stealing.
Refusal to use accurate definitions means you are unable to communicate effectively. Whether that is from ignorance or wilful manipulation will be determined by your response.
Then "buying is owning". I think you think I'm making a disagreement when I'm just trying to clarify the statement.
Because one is true, doesn’t mean the other is. As I said- BOTH can be wrong.
Cool. Then you agree with the meme
Again, BOTH can be wrong.
Saying it again doesn’t make you right
Doesn’t make me wrong either. Stealing is wrong. Regardless of what side you’re on.
So you're wrong? Gotcha
I’m done arguing with children.
Oh no!
"ROFL"
No. You're wrong. It cantn't.
So, it is good what they did?
