VitalSource markets certain digital textbook licenses as offering "lifetime" access while defining this term as a limited five-year period. The practice came to wider attention in December 2024 when VitalSource published a California disclosure page in response to AB 2426, a state law requiring companies to clearly disclose when digital goods are licensed rather than owned. Despite this disclosure, VitalSource continues to use the term "lifetime" in its storefront marketing without prominently displaying the five-year limitation alongside shorter-duration options that do show explicit expiration dates | VitalSource markets certain digital textbook licenses as offering "lifetime" access while defining this term as a limited five-year period.
