Sony is facing a lawsuit that seeks class-action status over claims that it created 'its own monopoly on digital PlayStation content,' allowing it to allegedly overcharge on digital games. At the heart of the issue is a change Sony made to how PlayStation consoles owners can purchase digital games, eliminating the third-party digital code option and instead requiring a direct purchase through the PS Store.
