tl;dr: Summary not available
HN Discussion:
  • ~Ownership is about freedom to use/share, not physical form; DRM-free digital counts as ownership
  • Piracy is the practical solution to untangle restrictive licensing and ensure lasting access
  • Examples like Sony revoking purchased content reinforce the article's warning about licensed media
  • Physical media is no longer sufficient since discs require updates, accounts, or DRM
  • ~Article's argument is valid but weakened by poor presentation and LLM-like scatterbrained execution
