This latest SNW ep is too self-indulgent, too long, and tries to be a morality play but does so going through the motions.

Sony says "reasonable consumers" know they don’t own the digital PlayStation games they buy.
It argues that it's "not plausible" to suggest that when they buy a digital game they actually believe they're "obtaining ownership" of it.
