LOL fuck off with that. The Amazon link[0] to a Final Fantasy game has a "Buy Now" button, not "License Now". I'm buying a copy of a game, exactly like I'm buying a copy of a book.[1] If they want to pretend in their little "licensing" fiction, it should be federally illegal to describe buying a copy as "purchasing" or "buying".
When you lease a car, you know you're leasing a car. They have to be clear about that up front.

[1] In before the idiotic strawman "so you think you own Final Fantasy?". No. I think I own my copy, not the copyright to distribute it.
- m463 1mo agoWhat's interesting is that the item you linked says "game key card" and "90 GB - Full game download via internet required" also interesting, in california vendors are required to say "you are buying a license" unless you can download the media you are purchasing. I don't know if that game qualifies. for kindle books, amazon says: "By placing your order, you're purchasing a license to the content and you agree to the Kindle Store Terms of Use." but some books actually could say "buy" like this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DMZC4VPQ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DMZC4VPQ Because when you "purchase a license" you can actually download the book in epub/pdf format (this specific book, not all books) There doesn't seem to be a way to determine kindle books that you can download in epub/pdf before you "license" them.
