Tonight I wanted to watch Spider-Man: Far From Home with my kids. I have subscriptions to Netflix, Disney+, Amazon Prime, Criterion, Apple TV+ and PBS. Yet, my only option was to purchase it digitally via iTunes for $15. There was no rental option. It wasn’t available in Disney+ because I assume Sony holds the rights despite the rest of Marvel belonging to Disney. It’s only available for purchase and not rental because I assume: greed.
So I downloaded it off Usenet instead.
Edit: Starz apparently has distribution rights at the moment. 7 days free then $8.99/month. So I could’ve legally watched it for free by signing up via Apple and canceling. Sigh. This is exhausting Hollywood. Get your shit together.
