  Steam library more game rental from Gabe imo.

  Much like other media, ownership is not giving money to a proprietary app store for access they control.

  That is not the point. Its the anti consumerism that Sony is practicing.

  Whatever you do, don’t point out that all Steam games have DRM and licenses too and Valve can pull a Sony any time it wants.

    Not necessarily. Developers choose whether or not to include the standard DRM.

  I don’t get why people salivate over game discs. It’s going to be completely destroyed by DRM anyway. IMHO people should salivate over DRM-free video games instead. Because what’s the point of “owning” an encrypted disk that refuses to install?
