This should be illegal

This should be illegal, companies should be forced to open-source games (or at least provide the code to people who bought it) if they decide to discontinue it, so people can preserve it on their own.

I jumped in to point out the flaw in the YouTube experiment you're referring to.

Can you think of a better visual example that a simple person could see and understand?

Imo, an easy way to remove YouTube's postprocessing from the equation would be to copy a video file to and from a nas or other computer several times and compare it with the untouched file.
