        Those are usually incredibly expensive licenses bought from the publisher.

        So I was right; this does boil all the way down to "the pissy little capitalist pig publishing houses aren't getting their kickback so now they're tantruming". Fuck it; I'm going back to full-scale pirating anything that wasn't independently produced and published.
