So looks like PS6 will not have an attachable disc drive. They should really let people create digital licenses from their discs. There are some folk with huge collections who are going to be pissed.

Don't worry guys Sony will never take away your digital licenses and do you the favor and removing them from your library.

Just ask everyone who bought (read: paid for) over 500 movies on Playstation.

You are secured Playstation bros.

Promise.

I still remember when Sony took away "Other Linux" after people bought their consoles.

"The "PS3 Linux scandal" refers to Sony's controversial 2010 decision to remove the "Other OS" feature from early PlayStation 3 consoles. Initially advertised as a built-in function to run Linux, Sony disabled it via a mandatory firmware update (v3.21) to prevent piracy, which resulted in a massive, years-long class-action lawsuit."

Anything you "purchase" from this company can be revoked at any time for any reason.
