I am on the belief that once I buy something, let's say Spiderman No Way Home, on streaming services, I am entitled to download it offline from anywhere for my own Jellyfin.
No one, or even biggest corp, can change my view.
Downloading stuff like this for personal use is in fact perfectly legal in many countries
If only they allowed you to do it easily...
Well it is easy.
It's just they don't allow it.
One out of two ain't bad.
Laughs in screen record
Even if you don't pay for it?
In Switzerland it technically is legal. Only hosting for others is illegal.
Depends on the country
They said buy, which means paying.
In some countries making a private copy isn't legal if copy protections are in place. Even if those copy protections are useless.
