Overview

• The suit, filed in Washington federal court on Friday, alleges a bait-and-switch that sells revocable licenses as purchases.
• The complaint says Amazon’s warning appears in small print at the bottom of the confirmation page and is not clear or conspicuous.
• Claims cite California unfair competition, false advertising and consumer legal remedies laws and seek disgorgement, punitive damages and other relief.
• Plaintiffs argue titles can be removed or replaced if Amazon loses distribution rights, undermining the expectation of lasting access.
• A similar 2020 case survived most of Amazon’s dismissal bid, and Amazon has not responded to requests for comment on the new filing.
