And then there's the problem with stuff suddenly disappearing or never being there in the first place.
The first time my kid came to me crying because his favorite series was pulled off of Netflix, and I went to try to find any other legal way to get it at the time and it simply wasn't available. It was done.
That happened to me before with Prime. Bought a movie, forgot about it for while then I remembered and when I went to look for it, it was gone. I checked my emails and I still had the confirmation of purchase. Maybe they thought they could remove it since I didn't watch it right away.
I spent over $1000 on Steam in the past few years and I'm scared one day they'll pull some games.
