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

This is the first movie I ever pirated, specifically because of this bullshit pricing. Now I have a VPN and a 500 GB server, which I’m sure will need to be upgraded at some point lol

Just a heads-up: no matter how safe you feel with your VPN, you shouldn't share this explicitly on a public forum. You're never as safe as you think you are.

If I directly downloaded it, and am using lemmy on a different device, is there still a way for them to link my comment to my online behavior?

Nobody is coming after you, don't worry about it. If they were really determined? Maybe, possibly, depending on many factors but you're a very small fish in a very big pond.

Yep, I've been screaming it from the rooftops for years and have gotten a few "stop downloading pirated content" letters from ISPs, and I'm still here.
