I mean a company like this can always deny you the things you've paid for by going out of business and closing the platform.
You should just assume that if you buy a digital license to something that it's never really yours
True. We probably need a law for that too.
The movie still exists. The license should just be transferred to another platform, or DRM should be removed so you don't need the platform to see it anymore.
If companies fail to comply with this, maybe we'll need laws forbidding "selling" with DRM or something like that.
The companies should write "rent" or "lend" instead of "buy" if they want to be able to remove access to a movie.
Otherwise it should just be considered theft or fraud.
If you torrent it, it is yours forever. Copyright is a fiction.
