It's essentially the same.
Can you explain to me the benefit of owning one over just taking a screenshot? Because if you can't, then it's pretty clear they're the same.
Often when someone asks whether they can screenshot an NFT, they are usually asking whether they can simply own the NFT by taking a copy.
It’s the same thing, right?
No. It is not the same thing. Owning an NFT with a verified address on the blockchain, and grabbing a copy of it by a screenshot are very different.
Would you consider you owned a Banksy or a Picasso simply because you found a copy of one of their pieces or art on Google Photos and took a screenshot?
No, obviously you wouldn’t.
Just because an NFT is digital, rather than tangible like a Banksy or Picasso, it doesn’t mean a copy is the same as the real thing.

I understand that the tactic of obtaining it isn't the same, but essentially it is the same.
The difference between a Banksy or a Picasso is that those actually were made by talented artists that people respect. These were made by a digital algorithm and barely take more than a few seconds to create.
How much art went into the design of the 1952 Mickey Mantle rookie card?
Jackson Pollock just dribbled paint on a canvas and they're now worth millions. It's all about the soul of what is inside. Being digitally tied to the blockchain means these will last forever, no worries about being burned in fire or stolen by the British.
It’s like saying you own the movie rights just because you have a VHS copy.
No it's like saying you own the movie when you have a VHS copy.
What good does having the "rights" to an NFT get you when anyone can just print one out? Seriously what benefit would owning one of these get you over me just printing it?
It’s a collectible. It’s the difference between a 1952 Mickey Mantle rookie card and photo copy.
