You might own the disc, but what about the optical drive that has to read that disc? That is already happening with the 5th (PS1/SS/N64) and 6th generation (DC/PS2/GC/XB) consoles, the optical drives are dying and there are no proper replacements. Congratulations, you own the disc but you can't read it anymore.
