Right, so what is the relevance of this in the context of owning your own media versus being milked for money by corporations and having what you paid for removed at their whim? You'd have to be familiar with common usage of media players up to today to give a knowledgeable comparison on what was and is normal or impractical in that area, let alone the meaning of digital, which you don't appear to be. My point that owning is better than allowing corporate exploitation for convenience sake still stands.
The relevance is that between subscriptions/DRM and physical media I'd rather choose DRM-less digital media.
So... you prefer owning your media, as was said many times here. Great.
