$25 to rent the movie, one watch within max 24 hours after you start watching it… Or $5 more to own it. Scammers.

And you “own” it only as long as they deem it. https://nofilmschool.com/warner-bros-deleting-purchased-digital-content

This seems like reverse piracy

“We own everything”, basically. All they want is for them to control how everyone else does things.

Also, a hearty “fuck you” to all those folks out there (I’ve run into them before) who claim that publishers should get to have absolute control over how consumers use stuff they put out.

Read the TOS for all streaming/digital content services

they ALL reserve the right to withdraw or remove content at ANY time and there’s nothing you can do about it, if they decide to pull the plug or move content to another service they will just do it and you’ve most likely agreed to it in their very long winded and convoluted TOS that barely anyone bothers to read fully

this is part of Apple’s TOS
