Committee adopts amendment, advances bill to clarify 'buy' vs. 'license' for digital purchases Representative Kupper's HB 2010 would require sellers to disclose when consumers receive a revocable license rather than ownership and create a 10-year proration for refunds if access is materially changed; the committee adopted a sponsor amendment preserving DRM, clarified proration and returned the bill with a do‑pass recommendation.

A new bill in Arizona aims to clarify the difference between owning digital products and merely having a license, ensuring consumers know exactly what they're buying.
