Technically you rented that what you think you bought and when the licence expires the game,movie, etc. will be deleted from your library, best recent example is The Crew by Ubisoft and there was that whole debacle with Sony and their Discovery Channel licence where people lost a ton of documentaries, was later restored... mostly, but it showed how fragile this digital ecosystem is and why people turn to piracy eventually since you basically don't own anything you shouldn't feel guilty about it.
