I’m not in the author’s position, but generally agree with the conclusion on digital products you might own. If I buy a digital thing, and it comes in a format I can’t own, I pirate it. I’m glad I paid the rightful recipients whatever pittance they got for royalties or whatever their pittance is… and then I get a version of the thing which is in a format I could give my figurative terminally ill family with no digital expiration. Maybe sometimes that’s technically illegal, because the law is wrong. Fuck the wrong law. I’m unfortunately not done with Google, but I’m done with rentals for sale.
