#RossScott says it clearly: the sell a game, they remove it from existence, and keep your money.

#Videogames is the only industry where this is permitted by game publishers. A $400B market.

#RossScott from #AccursedFarms, the man that spearheaded the Stop Killing Games campaign, has asked those of us who care about digital preservation, in this case video games, to use the #StopKillingGames hashtag as of July 2nd.
