anyone remember when the argument for digital goods was " We wont have to waste money on boxes, printing, media, storage, or shipping! So your goods will be cheaper than ever, and everyone will still get a more profitable cut!"
Pepperidge farm Remembers, because Pepperidge farm called bullshit on the argument back at the very start, and said they would get rid of physical media, not lower prices, and that we would lose ownership of our purchases... and the internet poopoo'd me to hell in back calling me paranoid and stupid for it.
and look where we are.
and its so goddamn fucked up I don't even get a single molecule of serotonin from being right about it.
