The article talks about these not being owning but you have to know going into it that you're not buying the product, you're buying a seat to use the product. That's renting. You're paying for access. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] potustheplant@feddit.nl 5 points 4 months ago* (2 children) Steam changed that after people complained, rightfully and a lot. Also, them granting a "license" is part of the problem. There's no reason for them to not sell you your own copy of the game other than to benefit shitty game devs. It honestly never ceases to amaze me how eager some people are to get fucked over by corporations.
