I moved from UK to France, and lost access to my movies on Prime.
I wonder what french anti-monopoly agency will do if you file that Amazon does this.
But he "brought" it on UK so I don't think a French agency has anything with that
Can you still access them with VPN?
Amazon actively blocks VPNs when using their Video or Music services. They also do a DNS check. It's a game of whack-a-mole. Your VPN provider has an IP that works, 24 hours later Amazon have it on the VPN blacklist.
Didn't try, but I imagine it could work. But more effort than I'm ready to put in to watch movies I paid for. I now stopped buying digital movies completely. Not worth it.
Wow really? This sucks! They should refund you if they don't offer the films in your region, that's hardly your fault...
