Proud that New York is one of 12 states suing to stop Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros.
This is not a merger that serves the public. It would hand one company nearly a third of the movies and cable channels Americans watch, raise prices for streaming and cable, endanger the livelihoods of thousands of New York artists and entertainment workers, and threaten to shutter theaters across our city.
New York's workers helped build this industry. They should not be sacrificed for the sake of further corporate consolidation.

THIS IS WHY PHYSICAL MEDIA NEEDS TO EXIST!
I bought these games PHYSICALLY for a combined £91.
If I had bought the exact same games right now on the PlayStation store it would have cost me £457.62!!!
This is the control Sony PlayStation could have over the pricing…

The NYC Hotline for ICE sightings is back up and running. If you see ICE in your neighborhood, contact 229-304-8720 and visit https://t.co/68HkGEj8M7 for more resources.
We must look out for each other, but this violence will continue until we abolish ICE.
Jason Schreier encourages gamers to go and visit local libraries on his video about why is Playstation killing physical media. Your local library often has new game releases you can borrow for free. It is a good way to save money and also help the library get more funding.
More reports why Sony is trying to end physical discs:
- They want to cut out the middle man, to make more profit per sale (like remove walmart cuts etc)
- Sony thinks the fanbase will not switch platforms, they can do what they please without losing fans
- They are convinced by ignoring this issue, they fans will just accept the changes and convert to 100% digital with time.
- Sony thinks they are "too big to have commination with fans". Talking to fans has no margin benefit, so they refuse to address fans and will keep doing so
I have lost all trust and goodwill with PlayStation, no words what is happening right now. Horrible company
Game preservationists say piracy may become the only way to preserve digital-only games without legal reform
The Video Game History Foundation is urging the ESA to support museums and archives
“This generation will not be defined by its great games or incredible tech, but rather by corporate greed, mismanagement, and anti-consumer practices.”
Nailed it
I'm a man of my word!
PlayStation has been my main platform since I was a kid, but I've had enough. They're greedy, wasted this gen chasing live service games and stopped caring about players...
Time to give Nintendo a chance as my main platform! 💙

Rockstar reportedly told Sony to remove GTA VI's branding from the PlayStation App after the disc controversy got too hot
Sony killed physical discs for all PlayStation games starting January 2028.
The backlash was instant.
Politicians calling for regulation. KFC and Domino's publicly roasting them. The internet turned on Sony overnight.
A week ago Sony had GTA VI everywhere.
App icon changed. PS5 dashboard taken over. Store completely redesigned. No PlayStation game has ever gotten that treatment.
Now all of it is quietly gone.
When Rockstar doesn't want to be associated with your decisions you know it's bad.
