$25 to rent the movie, one watch within max 24 hours after you start watching it... Or $5 more to own it. Scammers.

Spending $30 to own a brand new movie that just came out is not something I have a problem with.

However, not being able to download a copy of the movie you purchased is where I take issue.

$30 to own the movie is valid, but for $5 less, you're only allowed 1 watch within 24 hours of starting. Something like that shouldn't be basically the same price as the movie. With pricing like this, they basically force you to spend the extra $5. There isn't even a point to rent the movie and they know that.

I absolutely agree! Renting a movie should cost nowhere near as much as purchasing the movie.
