Sony Tells Court Buyers Know They Don't Own Digital Games

Sony made the statement in a court filing responding to a California lawsuit.

Sony told a California court that reasonable consumers know they do not own the digital PlayStation games they buy. The company argued it is not plausible that buyers believe they obtain ownership through a digital purchase. The filing responds to a suit accusing Sony of violating California law. Reports from Engadget, VGC and Wccftech confirm the position centers on the license terms of digital sales.
