Funny, my digitized collection of movies and TV shows seems to be working just fine. :3

Funny, people who spent ludicrous amounts of time and money to build up private libraries can’t pass the opportunity to be conceited.

What’s even funnier are the people who spend lots of money on subscription services to own nothing. This outage just demonstrates who really owns their purchases.

it’s not like people were being scammed

It IS a scam since a lot of subscription services do not make it clear that the buyer is only granted limited access, and not ownership of the product.

Just last year, due to legal reasons, Steam placed a notice on their cart page stating that purchases only grant a license—much to the surprise of some Steam users. Steam has been around for 20+ years, and it took a piece of legislation to force the company to inform their buyers of this very important fact. It is clear that they would rather have misinformed customers, much like in a scam.
