- spicybright 5y agoI get the same issues under normal usage (MacOS). I pay for prime, watch a movie I can only legally view there, but I'm not able to plug in a monitor/TV to watch it. I get an error about DRM not being supported by the monitor and/or HDMI cable. They make some excuse about cables not supporting some ultra 4k setting, but I think that's BS. I can pirate the same resolution content and play it fine on VLC. I'm paying but still can't watch what I'm paying for. This is why people pirate.

- krastanov 5y agoThis is why I tend to pay for the movie on whichever service they are on and then go ahead and download the pirated copy for actual consumption. It is important for me to find a way to fund the creators, but the user experience with non-pirated media is quite bad. I just wish there was a way to pay the creators and artists while also hurting the DRM-pushing middlemen.
- spicybright 5y agoWish someone could pull a humble indie bundle on it. Pay per title, download DRM free, most of the $ go to creators, less money pumped into DRM platforms. Works well with thousands of tiny studios, nearly impossible with the few large ones we have though...
