That's a good question.

But revoking viewing rights for an already sold, albeit digital product would be tougher wouldn't it? It would at least cause a lot of backlash.

Maybe more likely, or even probable. Is they pull an Apple when it comes to the Charlie Brown holiday specials and any existing digital copy is still valid but you can't buy any new copies. And it's forever locked behind a subscription paywall.

So one path it would be prudent not to buy any WB movies digitally but the other path would say it's better to buy them now before it's too late.

That's why you should always own hard copies of movies...DVD's Blu Rays etc.

I wonder if Netflix is gonna pull all WB digital rights and all the digital services will revoke viewing rights to people who bought WB movies, just like how the PS store did so with movies they sold in their digital store a few years ago

I've seen some credible speculation to this end, especially knowing how restrictive Netflix is

Ps store != iTunes. Apple would be shooting an entire business model in the foot by allowing this. At least in the short to medium term.

Does this count as Apple's 18 Days offering, or whatever…?

I think this risk is always present when you buy digital movies. The buyer owns nor possesses anything. Terms can change at the whim of the licensor even if it shoots themselves in the foot with the consumer. Businesses will always do what they believe is in their best interests even if it screws the customer.

Yep. I hate this late stage capitalism crap. We were all so ready to ditch cable for streaming and we're starting to coalesce back in to cable. Only this time the streamers will just happily keep jacking up their price whereas before at least the cable and satellite companies would be the ones to negotiate and fight with the studios. Now there'll only be a few streamers and they'll charge whatever they want because they know you have no choice. It's clear that Netflix has zero interest in theatrical or physical releases so I'm not looking forward to this merger at all.

...and convert them to your own digital copies... Stripping out menus, trailers, etc., if you just want the movie without anything else along for the ride. . Toss them onto a plex server and you have your own Netflix wall of searchable movies. Safely store the original discs for future use if/when needed.

Great deal for serial streamers, but as mentioned elsewhere in the thread -- unless you have the physical item in your possession, you own nothing. The moment streaming companies figure out how to turn a better profit or cut losses, their legal teams will nullify whatever "rights" you previously purchased to stream the material. That's just the state of technology today, and it's unlikely to get more consumer-friendly in the future.

My thinking is that, if I buy a digital movie and it's taken out of my library later, I won't feel bad about sailing the high seas to reclaim my movie.

What else will the lawyers do? Will they take away VPN and internet access outside of subscription streaming apps?

If the Consumer Protection Bureau wasn't destroyed, Netflix wouldn't even try to revoke the licenses. But alas, big corporations run the country more now than ever.

You are underestimating their power. They can easily say sorry no more Movies Anywhere... That would be one thing that they can try to pull first. Otherwise movies can and most likely remain on platform they were bought on.

Should be a way to download what you bought but then again they clearly say you are not buying the media, but rights to viewing it. Does it say the right is perpetual? I doubt..
