While the promise of an all-digital, streaming-based future seems to offer many benefits, things are starting to look a little different now, and one of the worst-case scenarios is now happening on PlayStation.
Sony has announced that it will remove some TV shows that players may have purchased from its library through PlayStation. Yes, the shows you paid for have just been… deleted
Any suggestions? That would be the Discovery TV show, and it seems the culprit, again, isn’t necessarily Sony itself, but another move by Warner Bros. It removed content from its service and deleted finished projects for storage and preservation of what was left. Tax relief or

Some may scoff at Discovery’s increasingly wacky lineup of reality shows, but they’re wildly popular, and some PlayStation owners no doubt bought them.
I’m sure there’s some nuance that says they don’t technically own the content, so if you buy it, you’re running the risk of not knowing it. In that sense, physical media is better, but I doubt many people would buy Blu-ray box sets of Here Comes Honey Boo-Boo if they existed. I have no doubt that WB is doing this primarily to sign up to Max and I wonder where this could be happening.
That’s hundreds of seasons of the show and, as far as I can tell, thousands of episodes. the wild That will happen at the end of the year, when any contracts expire on December 31, 2023. It is not clear whether Sony can There is a lot of blame for this, but it is also possible that the World Bank just charged a very large license bill so they could renew it.
