> When you 'rent' access (eg, streaming service), aside from obviously losing access if you stop paying rent, the actual content owner can decide to stop licensing the content and it will just completely disappear.

There's also the shitty hybrid model where even though you own a physical copy of digital goods (say, Grand Theft Auto), the content owner can still revoke all or part of the content-- as happens with the soundtrack of every GTA title after about ten years.
