I agree with your examples, all of which have been heavily criticized for anti-consumer behavior, particularly Disney and Netflix, so I'm really not sure what point you're trying to make. Just because Netflix does it, doesn't make it okay for Nintendo to do it. Digital media companies have strong incentive to practice anti-consumer behavior, so public outcry is important to counterbalance that.
