ensuring that consumers will be able to access their previously purchased content for at least the next 30 months.

Title should read “PlayStation will not steal the Discovery TV shows that you purchased from them for at least another 2.5 years.”

It’s insane to me that it’s legal to take away your access to something that you have previously purchased without refunding you the full original price.

Yeah this really makes no difference in the final outcome. You're still being robbed. They've just given you more advance notice of the day they'll break your windows... and somehow this is still considered "okay" and reasonable.

It's been said a million ways by this point, but it needs to be said every time this comes up. If buying isn't owning, then pirating isn't stealing.

Sony needs an internal Common Sense Regulator. Like, every action they're considering that involves customers, has to be approved by them first.

"Shit. We've been breached and PII is leaked. We should keep this quiet."

"Actually, we'll tell our customers everything."

"Shit. We've been breached again and all the services are down. Act cool."

"Actually, we'll let the customers know what's going on immediately."

"We will pull all this content."

"Actually, we won't."
