    “Oh, no! My profits!”

    Meanwhile, a legion of people wanting to access otherwise unavailable entertainment.

    Seems another good idea. Next, go to Portugal and expand on the “Right to Private Copy”.

      And another legion of people watching content they purchased vanish to smoke because some content holder wants a subscription service instead…

        Hence me asking for the EU to analyse and fully implement Portugal’s right of private copy.

        Boiled down, this just states anyone can have a copy, for their own private use, of any media they own and paid for.

        This means I pay an added fee on any support I buy where I can write any media but I can legally keep it for myself.

        The regulation is obviously polemic for all parts involved but it is a good start, even more when media platforms are removing access to products paid for.
