I gotta disagree. The only requirement is that the consumer doesn’t blindly trust companies when buying things more expensive than bread.
It should be common sense to check what they actually get when they buy something that 1. Isn’t tangible and 2. Is expected to last. But people don’t, not because they’re not perfectly informed, but because they lack basic critical thinking.
Time isn’t an issue either. It takes 10 minutes, one time, to figure out what stores give you actual ownership and which don’t, in the case of gaming.
A free market requires a perfectly informed consumer. That’s impossible before you begin to consider how marketing is dishonest
