$25 to rent the movie, one watch within max 24 hours after you start watching it... Or $5 more to own it. Scammers.
No you are mistaken with "Or $5 mire to own it". You own a license to watch for the amount of time the platforms decides to keep it up.
Then, when they remove it, they offer you a measly $5 gift card only redeemable on their platform.
On that last post where someone got a refund they gave a full refund as a gift card and an additional 5 euro gift card.
(Not saying it's an okay think to do, just in case you're referencing it.)
A gift card isn't a refund
It also doesn't change the false implication they would "own" the digital copy
And people will go 'you didn't buy it!' like it doesn't say "Buy" right fuckin' there.
Spending $30 to own a brand new movie that just came out is not something I have a problem with.
However, not being able to download a copy of the movie you purchased is where I take issue.
$30 to own the movie is valid, but for $5 less, you're only allowed 1 watch within 24 hours of starting. Something like that shouldn't be basically the same price as the movie. With pricing like this, they basically force you to spend the extra $5. There isn't even a point to rent the movie and they know that.
