American is furious, she’s yelling at her TV She spent around $40 to buy the Hunger Games movie collection on Amazon She wants to watch Hunger Games Catching Fire. The movie says “unavailable” even though she bought it Many people don’t know this but when you “buy” a movie or bundle on Prime Video, you’re not actually owning the film like a DVD or Bluray. You’re buying a non-transferable license to stream/download it as long as Amazon has the rights from the studio Licensing deals expire, get renegotiated, or the rights move to another streamer (HBO Max, Netflix, etc.). When that happens, even paid content can vanish from your library or show as “currently unavailable.” Amazon’s own terms of use state this in the fine print: “Purchased Digital Content will generally continue to be available… but may become unavailable due to potential content provider licensing restrictions or for other reasons, and Amazon will not be liable to you if Purchased Digital Content becomes unavailable.” If you’re going to buy a movie, don’t buy it on Amazon. Always buy the physical disk
