=== The Hidden Redefinition of “Purchase” ===

Sony’s claim is that their terms of service were changed to '''''redefine the word “purchase” to mean something new''''' so they could still CLAIM you were “buying” something when you were not. See their [https://web.archive.org/web/20240403115117/https://www.playstation.com/en-us/legal/psn-terms-of-service/ terms of service] below:

<blockquote>'''10.1.''' All intellectual property rights subsisting in PSN Content, including all software, data, services, and other content subsisting in or used in connection with PSN, the Online ID and access to content and hardware used in connection with PSN belong to SIE, its affiliates, and its licensors. Use of the terms “own,” “ownership”, “purchase,” “sale,” “sold,” “sell,” “rent” or “buy” in this Agreement or in connection with PSN Content does not mean or imply any transfer of ownership of any content, data or software or any intellectual property rights from SIE, its affiliates or its licensors to any user or third party.
</blockquote>
<blockquote>'''10.2.''' Except as stated in this Agreement, all Content provided through PSN is licensed on a non-exclusive and revocable basis to you for your personal, private, non-transferable, non-commercial, limited use on a limited number of PlayStation Devices or other devices in the country in which your Account is registered.
</blockquote>
They use the word '''“PURCHASE”''' on their website, but then hide behind this garbage buried into page 21 of their terms of service. The word '''''“PURCHASE”''''' has had a specific meaning since the 14th century, when Oxford English Dictionary defined the word ''“purchase”'' as meaning ''“to acquire in exchange for payment; to buy”'' or ''“obtaining something in exchange for payment in money or an equivalent; buying.”''
