A subscription-based game is completely different than a one-time purchase that you've refunded.

I knew you would say that, but seriously, stop and think about how its literally the same situation. There is no reason that Sony would delete data from a customer that might potentially give them money.

Especially when the data is probably just a handful of MB.

The only way it makes sense is if Sony gets vindictive and opts for scorched earth. It doesn't make business sense but this is the second time within 6 months Sony have tried taking away content from paying customers by one means or another. They clearly aren't very good at business these days.

I like how you completely ignored how your entire point of view makes no sense and chose to pick apart an analogy that is perfectly appropriate for the situation

You must be pretty young, just keep enjoying your days.

Stay in school and maybe you’ll find out multi-billion dollar companies manage millions of dollars in inventory and data using one analyst manually fixing incomprehensibly large Excel sheets lmao
