I think its unnecessarily convoluted, the Entertainment Software Association (ESA) are morons and need to get a life.
Including their cousins like the MPA and RIAA.

I am currently doing research around this topic for my University work and have created a google form for people to respond, but I need to make sure it is clean and respects everyone’s privacy.
You can request my signal group through direct messages if you would like to fill it out once it releases, I have other plans to have a talk as a (focus) group.
It’s just a sad state of affairs. Digital video games are 1’s and 0’s that you can copy for basically free (with the only cost being hard drive space which is dirt cheap), so preservation shouldn’t be a problem. Unfortunately, we live in a world where logic sometimes has to take the backseat in order to maintain the current ideology, and video game preservation is one of those sacrifices.
