  Electronic content/IP has upsides including convenience and environmental (less raw material, less waste and no shipping) Ownership could do with better regulation but ownership is an issue with physical goods...

  If they have DRM. If they don’t, the only issue is making sure you have backed up your stuff.

  > Stallman is right once again that electric content/IP such as ebooks, movies, etc. are a bad idea He also melodromatically states on his personal page that Netflix is a threat to freedom (https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html https://stallman.org/stallman-computing.html). Ironically, the documentary, Revolution OS, that he stars in, is not free https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/revolution-os https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/revolution-os
