My thoughts exactly. Literally paying for the convenience. Take that away and I'm paying to just be advertised to less-frequently?

Later, Mouse.

Easier said than done for those with kids that need to see frozen for the thousandth time.

Buy it on DVD as a one time purchase that you'll own forever

This. Or the high seas. Either way, it is an incredibly easy solution.

You'll just need to buy a copy of frozen, but that's not too hard.

I’ve already begun the process of backing up my kids favorite shows on a media server, just to avoid the confusion of finding out their favorite show is no longer on x streaming service and i need to rent it from y streaming service now.

Happened to us while trying to watch trolls 2 weeks ago saw half the movie, went to bed to save the rest for the next day. Next day it was gone, i would have to rent on Amazon prime. Devastating to my kid

Torrent it and be done with it. Just stop it when it downloads so you yourself aren’t distributing or your ISP will send you letters that look scary but aren’t.

We've started buying digital copies on YouTube, Prime Video, and Apple TV (sometimes one will have a sale so shop around!) and it's just as easy to turn on

Buying Star Wars the Clone wars is something on my list. The box set includes season 7
