Fuck Warner Bros and Sony PlayStation for this.
But it's not just them, it's an entire industry. If you pay for media and you don't get it physically in full, or the ability to download it in a DRM-free portable format, remember that you don't own it. Only do it in the knowledge that some day you will not have it anymore.
There are other options available for you. BluRays, piracy.
People were so happy MultiVersus happened, failing to realize the sheer acquisitions and monopolistic behaviour it takes to own so many IPs. How, when weaponised, it commands so many big names.
And now it's not working for people, because they're pulling the shows from PS.
If buying isn't owning, then piracy isn't stealing.
Mate, we've got it; we understand your position. You don't need to keep posting it.
Lol I posted the same thing and have now seen it 5 times in this thread. Yo-Ho!
