‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services

Ownership rights are buried in the fine print and downloading or buying physical copies may be the only ways to keep your favourites

@ai6yr I still prefer to own hardcopies of stuff...
@ai6yr
heck I still own VINYL ... like record albums...
@MsMerope LOL I don't have any vinyl here... some CDs, however. But, my music tastes have shifted quite a bit so a lot of that getting digitized and donated.

@ai6yr I've got some Beatles albums on the apple record label. I think some of them have all the inserts/posters with them too. Don't listen to them much, mostly cuz I'm not home.

Now I'm sitting here picturing a record player in the dashboard of a car.

I think I need to go to bed. 🛏️
