Digital has its benefits but not being able to actually own the asset to transfer or sell to others is really terrible.

I think it ought to be illegal to advertise such an arrangement as a sale or a purchase rather than a rental or some other similar term. It would at least make clearer than a lot of so-called purchases are actually revocable and non-transferable licenses, though it might not do much to actually curb the practice.
