What a goofy list.
What a goofy list.
I’m in the fairly niche group preferring digital ownership (although I also strongly feel we need legal revisions and consumer protections over things we digitally own, instead of the “well if this digital shop goes bankrupt, your stuff is just gone”, DRM, HDCP hellscape, wild west we’re in now) primarily because I’m against the huge amount of plastic and physical materials physical media creates. I am most heavily against the “subscribe to everything, give all the companies your money, and own NOTHING” extra super duper hellscape we’re going towards now.
Wow really across the automotive spectrum there. Imagining Ford, Honda, and BMW teaming up brings to mind a mental image of a a boisterous jocular bro, a kind warm hearted engineering student, and a sociopath who spits in your face and wanks off in front of you in the middle of a conversation, chatting in a room making a business deal. I’m not quite sure what to make of this.
I held on to physical media for a long time, and the legal ownership implications are scary for digital media, BUT the argument of avoiding creating plastic waste at one point outweighed this for me, and I’ve been all digital ever since, but to each their own. Definitely pros and cons either way.
