  > I would assume the rights to those digitalizations belong to the same owner as the rights to stream in most cases. Not in most cases, no. Usually everything is owned by someone else -- even the audio and the video are usually owned by separate companies. Also, the originals that those blu-rays were digitized from are most likely the film masters themselves, which would have to be found again, and possibly restored again. You'd be surprised how easily studios lose their film masters.
