Just pirate or I guess spoof your user agent, but just pirate instead: Don't give Amazon money.

That won't help. The issue is Widevine DRM protection level. It's the same issue everywhere.

Piracy it is! The system fails again!

Nothing like being pushed into piracy by anti piracy measures, gj corporations

As is tradition.

Streaming services like netflix and prime helped reduce piracy to all time lows. But then corps started getting stupid again and making their own exclusive streaming services, requiring you to have 20 subscriptions just get all the same shit you had with 2. Now drm enforcement on top of that and piracy is back on the rise...

Yep, I paid for a movie and they hit me with this, so they're never getting another dime from me. What brain dead morons are responsible for restrictions like this? Is it really that hard to see what the only possible outcome is?
