probably around $9.99—just as on cable where one can either buy a movie or rent it for a one-time viewing.

The cinema owners though, I don't get why they are shocked. Who's going to sit in movie theater during this pandemic, except maybe crazy trumpers with no sense?

Some industries, unfortunately, don't work during a pandemic. Theaters, bars, sit-down restaurants, gyms. It's too sad but their business model, through no fault of their own, is not safe now. And won't be for who knows how long.

I doubt you'd own the bytes. I think at best you'd own a right to view as long as it is on offer Bernardo de La Paz Aug 2020 #9

Certain movies and tv shows have a time value in seeing it exboyfil Aug 2020 #10

More than reasonable. I imagine you can add the title to your Movies Anywhere account. stopbush Aug 2020 #12
