They did change their tune later, but it still shows that companies can steal or threaten to steal digital items that you had legitimately purchased access to.
If Sony contends that that is not stealing, then neither is pirating Sony’s stuff.
It’s by far the easiest to make copies of and I do. Basically I own it and I have multiple backups with no drm. You can burn new disks and they play just fine in a Blu-ray player. A movie server is far more convenient though. Bonus you can watch hello Kitty on the toilet if you like.
Music is just as trivial. I wish games were easier to back up though.

Sony is way ahead of you! Sony pulls discovery videos PlayStation users already own.

I can’t remember the specifics, but didn’t Audible drop 1984 and Animal Farm down the memory hole at one time?
Yeah, but drm on all normal physical video formats has been broken, so eh

How can it be easier than ctrl+c, ctrl+v?
Sony sure tried, and bricked a bunch of PCs in the process.
Did any company ever used DRM to disable physical media remotely? Is this even technically possible?
