How does that work though if you rent a car? You don't own it, but still stealing if you "steal" it.
Seems I hit a nerve. I don't disagree with what you've put. The biggest issue here is the fact they say purchase rather than rent. I'd much rather I purchase a movie and own it but that's not the business model they offer. In reality, if the continue with their current model they should rename it.
