So you buy a life-long lease?

Didnt know that.

Neither did I.

My next question is, if we buy a life long lease then the price should be lower the older you are right?

For all customers to get the same value out of the same song/album then prices should be dependent on age.

 

For the record i dont support this and i am against all theese license bullshit they are trying to pull. I belive in what u bought is yours.

Is marijuana the best medicine?

ugh let's hope that Willis loses.... if he wins everything digital will be more expensive... and when you buy a CD yes you own the disc.. but not the music on it, just like with games, software, movies etc...  It's a licensing deal... he should have read the terms and conditions before he accepted them...

Lol. Wtf?

So I can't leave the CD to my daughter?  

Sure you can leave the disc to your daughter but the music on it wouldn't be hers.. it's not even yours when you buy it..  buying a legitimate CD you have paid for the right/license to own the physical disc and to play it privately... now the license on a CD, DVD, book has depending in which country most of the time a transferable license, so your daughter would get the rights to own the physical disc and play it privatly.... but digital content has as nontransferable license..

So, in whose real world does this matter?

Well I wouldn't take this stuff too lightly.. Amazon once pulled of a trick deleting George Orwell "1984" and "Animal Farm" from Kindles remotely.. the publisher selling the digital books didn't have the rights.. they said they wouldn't do it again but simply the knowledge that they can is scary enough..

lol.. I think the calculation for the prize would be too difficult... cause you would pay after you die, which is kinda difficult..

What i meant is a 20 year old buying the same as a 60 year old gets more for the same money so in a way they scamming the older users.

Couldnt that price be based on average age of the citizens?

 

Edit. Like 85 or 90 years of life exepctation. That would be the only course of action (as i see it) for a fair pricing to all costumers if they are going to incist that its only a license

They can't delete iTunes songs from your pc, it's impossible.

But they could delete it from your account, making it impossible to retrieve it or re-download it when something happens to your PC.. they have done this with a lot of apps..for example companies who went bust or didn't pay the yearly licence..  making it unavailable to download it again.. not everyone is like us tech savy making weekly backups.
