    … the fact that I realize this is why I think it’s a weird way to use the term.

    Headphones are not downloadable. They’re not even software. Also I don’t game all that much anymore but I’ve yet to play a game where I “needed” a dlc, I don’t think I’ve ever even bought one.

    I have, on the other hand, bought 100 pairs of headphones

      You get that analogies exist right?

      The original commenter used the term “DLC” to paint a pretty precise mental picture. And you got hung up on the semantics.

        It’s a clunky analogy. I stand by that, and rightly so.

        It’s actually less of an analogy and more of a “look I’m a cool nerd too” type comment
