But if you sell me something and then take it back, that actually is stealing. It will never happen because somewhere in the TOS they had wiggled in a clause to invalidate it, but morally Sony owes the users a refund for everything they are taking back.

Although the weaselling that tends to happen with digital content like this is that you didn’t buy the content. You simply bought a licence to view the content from that service, and if the service cannot provide the content, that’s your problem to deal with.
