Over the past couple of days, several reports have surfaced claiming that Sony has introduced a new form of DRM (Digital Rights Management) technology on PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 consoles. Supposedly, said DRM, which many believe was installed in the latest firmware updates for both systems, imposes a 30-day limit on any new digital purchases on either system. After these 30 days are up, you’ll reportedly be required to connect your PlayStation consoles to the internet so that Sony can validate your purchases.
