Anything that has the word "purchase" in it should be legally mandated that there be a way for users to access it indefinitely: in this case, perhaps making it possible to download with some sort of offline DRM. (You can do this, say, with Audible books that you buy.)
Anything which is cloud-only and may disappear at any time should be labelled something else, like "lease".

- wowokay 4y agoYeah good point, it seems like something that should have rolled into all those privacy laws.
- hiccuphippo 4y agoThey'll just bury somewhere in the contract that you are purchasing the limited access to the good, not purchasing the good itself.
