Yes they can. A digital copy isn't considered permanent ownership by studios/networks.

It appears you are right to an extent. There was a copyright dispute over 1984 and Animal Farm and Kindle users had their copies removed (and they were reimbursed).

Not sure you should be too worried about a studio or platform removing your digital copy because they don't want you to have it. Would cost them $ and they risk a class action lawsuit.

"There’s a lot of meaning built into the phrase ‘buy now,’” Perzanowski said. “It’s not saying ‘rent now.’ It’s not saying ‘gain conditional access.’ It says ‘buy,’ and that means something very specific to most consumers -- something that, in the case of digital content, isn’t true.”

The latest episode of clone wars is top notch! If you haven’t been keeping up, do yourself a favor and start watching.

I liked season 7 overall but I'm not thrilled with how it bleeds into the same timeline as Episode 3. I wanted it to end leading up to the kidnapping of Palpatine.

Download it after buying and store it on a hard drive, they can never take it from you.

Need "Mandelorian" type production not Disney channel type production

There is probably no way of knowing but it will be interesting if The Right Stuff miniseries I posted above will be PG13 or above or if they have edited anything out.
Since it was originally produced for Nat Geo.

Hilary is right about this. It's what doomed Girl Meets World from the start on Disney Channel. It wasn't able to tackle any of coming of age stories the way BMW did back in the day on ABC.

GMW should have aired on Freeform instead. IMO

The same problems will effect the upcoming Mighty Ducks series as well.

Hilary Duff passing on the watered down Lizzie Maguire reboot? Looks like she's headed for her own show in new spinoff series.

I just question how Disney+ can do long term if they insist on not doing PG13 or higher rated product?

These days, PG-13 is almost always teen trash it seems. PG, G, and R are where the better productions typically come from, IMO.

I don't care as much about production value as long as it's entertaining. I'm just saying that Disney+ is going to have to have something appealing for adults or as they say in tv ratings speak the 15-30 crowd. I think they realize that which is why they have moved The Right Stuff miniseries from National Geographic to D+.

I think you're underestimating the masses' brand loyalty to disney.

There is actually a trilogy of films.

They only released 2. My kids were the right age for me to see the first one about a dozen times. I only saw the second one a couple of times. I thought the first one was pretty entertaining (at least the first several times)

I was never a Harry Potter fan. It came out when I was in my mid 20s and just didn’t interest me. But now I have kids that are super into it so I’ve become a fan by proxy. Seeing these other YA series that have used a similar formula to be successful books yet fail in the adaption to film just makes HP all the more impressive to me. For the entire cast to hold together (with the untimely death of Dumbledor excluded) for 9 movies is really just an impressive feat of movie making. Even Chronicles of Narnia, which is a classic series that paved the way for HP in many ways, didn’t sustain that level of stability.

LOL, I didn't see my first HP film or read the book series until I was in my mid 30's.
