No, I think they expected that if they bought an item, they own it now, and none of this "legal license" mumbo jumbo would be relevant

[–] histic@lemmy.dbzer0.com -4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

maybe you should read the TOS then

[–] gun@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

Yeah, because I'm sure every consumer will read section 4-i of the Amazon prime video terms of service

[–] TranscendentalEmpire@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

TOS agreements aren't to protect the consumer, they exist to protect the service provider and can be changed by the service provider at any point.
