this feeels like a lawsuit; shouldnt sony or discovery issue refunds because of this.
I fucking hope there's a lawsuit. They're probably leaning on some understanding that by agreeing to their ToS, you agree that you don't own any of your content. But i feel like that also betrays the common person's understanding of how digital content works, or at least how it should work. Basically anything you cant download DRM-free and back up yourself is subject to disappear at any time.
if only. no sane lawyer will take on sony, especially when the TOS explicitly says you don't own your content.
