Not limited to PlayStation. Apple's been doing this for years.

I have iTunes music going back to the day the store opened. Some of it is now missing from the iTunes cloud (or Apple Music or whatever it's called this week). It would be gone forever had I not made a local backup.

At least Sony's contacting customers. I was looking for songs I knew I had and couldn't find them until I searched a local backup.

When I complained, I got a boilerplate "tough titties, sometimes we lose licensing" response.

Always keep hard copies people.

This foolishness of trusting someone else to host your stuff for you? Well now you know.

With Apple, you can at least download the media you bought and keep it.

Could you do that with these PlayStation store movies?
