The ability to change features, prices, and availability of things you’ve already paid for is a powerful temptation to corporations.

    With what money do you suggest people who make the games or the movies should be paid? The way of least resistance is an incredible weak argument to justify taking the work of others without paying for it.

      The money that their employer gives them?

      How is it weak? And why do you ignore the other thing i wrote about the better product?

        And the money grows on trees? You do realise that the money comes from people purchasing the product?

        Slower software because of DRM is an issue for, I estimate, perhaps 1 % of the software that is pirated on a regular basis. If even that.

        The few seconds of a screen you “have to wait through”, no, I do not think that justifies not paying for an entire movie.

          not all of it.

          You estimate wrong.

          Why not?
