Can we just get a piece of legislation that requires unlimited lifetime access to digital purchases?

Even we did:

  1. You lose access anyway once your unrepairable console dies especially if the next gen is out
  2. Lifetime = console maker lifetime. What happens when a console maker is bankrupt?
