It says right in the TOS that it's licensed, not sold. Then the button says "Buy". It's intentionally misleading and contradictory.

Fuck the TOS.

When I purchase stuff, I don't wanna read a legal contract. No one wants, no one does.

The contrariam in me thinks: If the contract is that crucial, let's have a mandatory, non skippable, slow scrolling of it, or maybe audio version slowly read.

I bet all TOS would get much simpler and tame!

Whaaat... oh wow that's bleak. I guess Apple do whatever they want.

I’ve had Apple delete my music from my devices.

As in, I had a physical CD I had purchased, ripped to MP3, and loaded onto my iPhone.

iTunes recognised it, linked it to the matching official entry in their music store, they lost the licence and deleted all customer copies including mine.

I don't think it's really that misleading. You're buying a license and I'm hard pressed to think of some other interpretation of that.

That the license kind of sucks and comes with restrictions is the bigger problem than any inherent deception
