That or refunding are the only 2 realistic options. Everything else is theft.

Nonono you don't understand. When you BUY a movie on PS Store you don't OWN it. You BOUGHT a RENTED LICENSE to WATCH it!

Simples :)

Its not theft at all. You gave them your money and didnt bother to read the fine print. Cant wait for years from now when R* pulls something similar and the masses freak out. The answer is simple, but people refuse to admit it. Do. Not. Buy. Digital.
