i have seen this meme the third time the last few days and i’m always like: rent where?
i don’t get it. does it mean, the movie isn’t available within the services subscription, but costs additional money or does it mean it’s not even in any service and you rent it somewhere else?
iTunes, Amazon Prime or Youtube has movies to buy and rent. Lots of newer movies take a long time to appear on streaming if at all. I rent quite a lot on iTunes. It’s a fiver and no hassle. Some are a bit special, like Nosferatu costs 16 just to rent it, yeah no I’ll wait.
Also buying on iTunes has been worth it for me as they will give you higher quality versions later on without additional cost. Way back I got Home Alone for free in the advent calendar in SD and now I can watch the same in 4K.
Downside of course is you don’t really own anything.

On some services like Amazon Prime you can rent a movie for 24h (or something like that)
You can also “buy” movies, but I’ve seen so many times that they take away the movie that you “bought” and you don’t get a refund.
You can also rent on YouTube, and even buy there, so you can always access your cherished movies in reliable and enduring Google Services.
It costs additional money and only for a 1 time viewing, example Bringing Out The Dead (1999)
