Comment Movies Anywhere (Score 1) 22

Movies Anywhere works only for movies and only for participating studios. Paramount along with numerous smaller studios do not participate in Movies Anywhere meaning said movies as well as all TV shows will be locked into Microsoft. My TV shows and non Movies Anywhere movies are locked into Apple because I can't foresee them ever shutting down.

"I would like to see my favorite 70s and 80s shows get upscaled." Good news. Most shows from the 70s and 80s (and everything earlier) were shot on film which is better than HD quality so no AI upscaling is necessary. Hence, you already have many shows from that era and earlier in HD such as The Twilight Zone and MacGyver. It wasn't until the later 80s and 90s that SD Video started replacing film. Thankfully not all shows switched to video. Seinfeld was shot on film, for example.

You don't know if it will pass if you never try it. These Senators and Congressman probably have made some purchases or have family that have made some purchases and if they knew how tenuous those purchases were they might be motivated to protect consumers through legislation. Right now, Congress is not very friendly towards Hollywood so the time is ripe.
