As always, the paying user has the worst experience. "Purchase" a show, can only watch on a certain console of a certain brand, no transfers, no backups, then it suddenly disappears from the library and nothing can be done.

If media companies insist on draconian DRM, then they should pay for full refunds to their loyal customers when one day they decide to delist that specific show.

"But you only ever owned a usage-license, which we now suspended" strawman argument incoming.

Well duh, then i don't have "buyed" but rented it. Usage of those terms by platforms should be sued as misleading.

I look forward to the class action suit, and the $14 check I'll get in the mail.
