Sony is facing a $7.9 billion lawsuit that could impact over 9 million players. They’ve been accused of deleting purchased movies, TV shows, and games—items customers thought they owned forever.

This lawsuit, filed by consumer advocate Alex Neill, challenges Sony’s alleged abuse of its dominant position, charging high prices and restricting competition on the PlayStation Store.

      I agree with all the replies I’m getting but people are literally going round in circles with the outrage over digital licenses.

      Buy physical, backup your media, download illegally or do what you need to do to show businesses that things need to change.
