Same is true with physical. It's just harder for them to take it away.
I was thinking the same thing. I remember playing doom on pc and it was pretty clear then who the rights holder is..
They just couldn't remove access, so it felt a lot less like I was "renting" the privilege
It's great to see more transparency from Steam! This move could spark important discussions about digital ownership and consumer rights.
