I’m tempted to go apple and try Apple store, for all my purchases. I just want it all in one place and to actually own what I purchase

Google is just as bad, trying to do the right thing and support the movies we love, and now Google has locked all my movies so only I can watch them. I can still load them on the telly in the lounge, but I specifically bought them to be shared amongst my kids, who now can’t see them. They make it impossible to follow their rules. It’s become impossible to buy digital. I’m tempted to go apple and try Apple store, for all my purchases. I just want it all in one place and to actually own what I purchase. They’re talking out both sides of their mouth. On one hand they lambast you for taking a copy of something, but if you buy a copy they can take it away at any time and you don’t own it. There is no contract where money is traded for a product.

If you want to obtain the video content legally, go bargain bin hunting for DVDs and VHS tapes. If you want it illegally there’s a ton of actual children’s programming that’s officially posted to YouTube now,
yt-dlpto download a copy. I did that in preparation for a multi-day car trip and on nights where the hotel WiFi won’t play ball and I just need to zombify the kids for a bit, I have a small selection of shows they can watch.LavaPlanet@lemmy.world 1 year ago
