Fact is, current software licensing laws needs to change. Doesn’t matter whether I own a physical copy or a digital copy, a company shouldn’t be able to decide that I can’t access the product I paid for anymore.

What software aren’t you able to access anymore that you’ve paid for? On PlayStation and Xbox at least even if stuff gets de-listed you can still redownload if you bought it. Same with physical disks

Idk if it’s happened for games yet, but at least for movies it has happened. I think there was a case with Disney revoking The Lion King license from Apple, and then Apple removing the movie from users libraries.
