I wonder why their license affects your local copy of a purchased product. Imagine a supermarket losing the contract to sell Nescafé, so Nestlé comes into your house to take their coffee. Okay, Nestlé would totally do this anyway, but it’s bizarre.

Because it's not a purchased product. It's a sub-license of Apple's license for you to temporarily play a work.

  Yes but this is not how it’s marketed. The button says purchase not license/Rent for a random period of time.

  Okay, but then it’s not a sale. Words mean something, and selling me something should mean what everyone expects it to. <old man yelling at the wind sounds>

As described, the Apple version is that they won't remove local copies you already have? They just can't facilitate copying a new instance to your device. I still think this is crazy, mind.
