Digital Ownership, Or How A Bunch Of PlayStation Content Got Stolen (The Jimquisition)




Digital media is fragile – perhaps the most fragile media format we have, considering how tightly controlled and whimsically removed it is thanks to corporate interests. As PlayStation users just got told they’re losing tons of Discovery content they paid for, we have to examine the utter scam of digital ownership.

  1. My dad is friends with the guy who was in the mopatop costume. One time when I was a child I ate scrambled eggs and ketchup on toast in the house of the mopatop guy

  2. I pay for things. Things that exist. Streamed content is worthless to me. I hope physical media endures.

  3. lol ending

  4. yarp

  5. “All capitalists want to become landlords.”

  6. When I read about this topic I saw folks online making a meal from the boot. You’re supposed to lick the boot. I’m still not impressed about this all digital future. The Shaggy interpolation was sheer brilliance.

  7. GODDAMIT ZILLA

    fuckin amazing
    knocked it out of the park

  8. “Stealing is stealing whether it’s legal or not.”

    This is my takeaway

  9. glad to hear crabnuts the bear is entering the energy drink buisiness, good for him

  10. In Sony’s defense, it sounds less like Sony is taking content, & more lost their authority to provide it in the first place. This also isn’t even the first time it’s happened either, as Amazon had licensing issues for Kindle books in the beginning; let’s also not forget the P.T. issue. Really, digital distribution is still new, & hardly been thought out long term.

    Also, most people have never read a ToS to understand that they technically agreed to all of this.

  11. I feel like this isn’t the first time they did this, but it’s always worth making a fuss over

  12. Intriguing but highly disturbing.

  13. Nintendo stole a bunch of Wii games from me

  14. I hate the current status of streaming.

  15. I like the new Boobie filled into!!

  16. _”You foreskin merchant!”_ is such an awesome insult.

  17. I was as sceptical as anyone about Scorpian Scream Energy to start with but the nice marketing man in the shop kept screaming at me that it was chemically safe and now I have 96 cans of it

  18. Man fuck castle super beast for ever saying piracy was bad

  19. Steph and Zilla, what a team! You lovely human beings, keep knocking ’em out of the park, I’ll be here cheering. <3
    Edit: And the rest of the good people of the show, of course; you're all amazing!

  20. Enshittification is happening at an ever-increasing pace.
