I have never once in my life had the expectation that any digital entitlement I have purchased would be usable for the rest of my life.
Not only would that be an insane, illogical, and entitled perspective to hold; but it is also directly contradicted by every TOS/EULA of every single streaming service I have ever signed up for, and the T&C of every single digital purchase I have ever completed.
I am at a loss as to why you, or anyone else has ever had a different expectation.
I have always expected to lose ALL OF MY DIGITAL ENTITLEMENTS AT SOME POINT IN THE FUTURE.
Have you never actually read anything you’ve agreed to?
I already replied to that same ai response copied word for word like you just posted.
You are replying to the comment of me answering what you just said.
Lol.
Yes... Intentionally because you ignored my point and added nothing new...
Try and keep up.
Lol try and keep up with you repeating ai slop and not saying anything new in the comment?
Nice cover though.
Also go fuck you calling me culturally illiterate and shit when you say you want companies to take things back you buy but then also whine about microplartics. If you weren't the anti consumer pos you are working for those people none of it would be a problem.
You're an arrogant asshole that I have yet to see a single person on here agree with.
Maybe the ai can help you figure out a reply?
I don't care if people agree with me, I'm not here for consensus and I certainly don't need to prove anything to you. You're the one with a chip on your shoulder lashing out emotionally.
I have zero emotional connection to this issue. I don't need to feel correct, because I have demonstrated the logic and rationalism behind my view. Your only recourse is to name call, and attempt to disregard conflicting perspectives as artificial or paid because you have no objective observation or historical precedent, nor any rational or philosophical underpinning to your position. You're frustrated because you know your arguments have no merit, and you're not even particularly effective at articulating your irrational emotional response.
Whether you pull your shit together for a serious intellectual debate, continue your diatribe, or disappear entirely; the industry is still going to do what they want, you are still going to lose, and the entire industry will be better for it.
You called me delusional among other things so shove it up your ass.
Now that that's out of the way you are anti consumer and no one here gives a fuck what you think as evidenced by the countless people telling you to fuck off and your inability to form responses without ai copy and paste as evidenced by your other comments.
The companies you have said you worked for do though so continue to be a part of that and everyone will move to steam where they get to actually always download what they buy. If you really gave a fuck about microplastics you'd do the same because that's the only way to be PRO consumer with digital only purchases.
Keep licking the boots baby. I don't care about you or your corporate shill opinions. Do you have all this free time to be on here because you were one of the ones recently laid off? Sure sucks to be part of a shit company eh?
You didn't find your echo chamber anti consumer mentality on reddit and you won't find it here either. Continue to be culturally illiterate bud.
If you truly thought my opinion was unrealistic, out of line, or paid, you would have moved right past it like the hundreds of true believers here.
You only engaged because it pissed you off that you couldn't easily dismiss my points in your own head and the cognitive dissonance caused pain as you approached a meaningful thought.
You never proved anything I said wrong. In fact you conceded and said "yeah well I think its OK that they can take stuff back they should be able to do that!"
I'm calling that bs out because employees like you spread that shit online to try and gain positive sentiment about your anti consumer crap. And I'll make damn sure anyone reading that gets to see the other perspective in the same thread.
Fuck anti consumer bullshit and fuck the employees of these companies that support it, like you.
