Do You Own Your Games? - Retrogaming Responsibly
2020 • E6 Mar 4, 2020 7m
It's happened to all of us at least once. A game that we might have loved suddenly disappears (or is patched out). There's no way to access it or find it... except through roms. That's okay. You bought it once right? That means it's yours! Weeellll... The legal grounds of ownership can get trickier than you might expect, especially as more and more of our media becomes digital exclusive. Luckily we have lawyer Ryan Meyer from the law firm of Dorsey & Whitney LLP (https://www.dorsey.com/) here to explain what an archival copy really means.
