Some friends and I have a list of movies we want to watch (stuff set in NYC in the 50s-70s). It was a pain in the ass trying to find where they were available to stream. I didn't really want to pay $4 to rent when we were already paying monthly fees.

Also, things should enter the public domain after like 14 years.

    I have a lot of shows and movies on my watchlist that I can't stream anywhere (including rental) and there's no physical place to rent them either.

    To name a few: Counterpart, Star Trek Discovery, Star Trek Lower Decks, Dr Who, Farscape, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, and The Abyss.

    I'm not going to buy a movie or show to watch it once, but other than that I'm here with the money in my hand ready to give it to the license owners. Apparently they don't want it.
