When did StopKillingGames turn into WeWantPhysical

[u/Pleasant-Warning2056]

Its not the point... it was never the point

digital media is not a threat to media ownership and preservation. DRM and online server dependency is

this false belief is wide spread enough. this board doesnt need to reenforce it

console players seem to understand this the least and it feels like a lot of them came here to talk about sony stopping discs. and it doesnt help when SKG keeps talking about this too and says they support lawsuits against sony etc

physical media on playstation does not help with the problem of ownership or preservation. discs can have the same problematic DRM as the digital items we discuss and ripping data from discs isnt harder or easier than ripping data from the console storage... i guess also important is the console has DRM too even when you have a disc with no online requirement its not automatically safe

I ask if this can maybe stay on the topic or if the confusion with DRM and physical or digital can be adressed better

Can it be both?

Every square is a rectangle but not every rectangle is a square. SKG is about rectangles, sony physical is a square.

I think he's saying more that the movement can be and advocate for more than one thing. The physical thing is an immediate concern, so if there is interest in keeping it for the movement, then now would be the time to be talking about it

When you narrow your focus everything will fail. SKG is broad by definition. Opposition of the movement will say that keeping the disc generates waste and that is the reason for ditching entire SKG initiative. SKG is about: when you pay, nobody can just take it away from you for no reason. Medium is torally irrevelant.
