No one pays to rent digital movies, right, especially for $20 US dollarydoos?It's just movie studios and Amazon trolling us?
>>216049612Millions do this every year. You think they'd give you the option if no one did it in the first place?
>>216049612lol, you can't even contemplate anyone being honest.
>>216049690>>216049738No, it's just hard to believe that people would look at this and think it's anywhere near a good value, especially if you grew up in the era of renting VHS and DVDs from actual stores.
>>216049803Not hard to believe at all; for a family of four it's cheaper than going to the theatres. Throw in disabled people and people not living close to theatres and it's the easiest choice.
>>216049612my grandparents do for some reason
>>216049612this is usually for new releases. Wait a couple months and it's 6.99, then 4.99.
>>216049919Still highway fucking robbery. At least with Steam your paying price for shovelware you more or less technically kind of own, unless they butt-fuck you with the DRM and decide it's offensive or some shit.
>>216049803The target audience for this nonsense is the kind of person who's getting paid $35/hr to sit in an office (sometimes at home) and reply to 2 emails a day. It works because money is meaningless to them. If you ever see a product and are baffled by the pricing, just remember pic related.
>>216049612Not at that price (that looks like the "digital exclusive" price, where it's just out of the cinema) but I will occasionally rent obscure movies from Apple TV or Amazon for £3.49, but only after checking how much the DVD is and deciding that's the easiest / cheapest option.
>>216049951think of it like a pinball machine or a pool table at a bar then
