It's because the licence holder of the movie decided Amazon can't show it anymore. Perhaps they were asking Amazon to pay a high fee and it wants worth it.
As a rule you only own something if you have a physical copy in your hands. Which is why I wish they would still make CD's.
I'd much rather have a physical CD for music because not only can I use it in the car, I can rip a FLAC and have it on all my devices.
Er, you can still buy cds. Discogs, local B&Ms, Bandcamp, the artists own website. Source: I still buy em.
Depends where you live. I'm not in the US so we don't get many CD's
I'm not in the US either. Discogs is fairly international, sometimes you won't be able to ship one copy to you, but it's extremely rare where at least one other seller isn't shipping to me. Bandcamp is great too.
Ok in that case I'll take a look at those. Thanks 👍
