Is it wrong to pirate movies I've purchased digitally and load onto my Plex server?
Just would like to have a discussion on the topic. I've purchased around 20ish movies/shows on Vudu, and my wife has grown to be unhappy with Vudu's UI and especially how the watch progress works. I am curious what some others thoughts on this are. My initial thoughts are I recognize I've purchased a license to watch the content, but feel that because I've purchased it I should have the right to retain total control over it and do what I please. I would like to purchase movies on physical media from now on, but wouldn't like to repurchase all the same movies and shows again when I've already paid for them

no
May I ask for your reasoning?
Because you've purchased the movies ya dingus
The writers and actors are on strike right now, and if you pay for media before their strike is over, it makes it easier for Hollywood to profit off existing media, ignore the writers and actors, and starve the writers and actors out.
If you want to support writers and actors while they are on strike, so that Hollywood folds first, consider donating to
-
WGAE members' strike fund
-
WGA Solidarity Assistance Fund (supports both East and West)
-
Food and practical support for their picket lines
Numerous people ON the strike have debunked this, watching things made pre strike pays the actors and writers as well, just don’t consume post strike media.
Strike funds aren't something you can debunk. And if they were being paid enough already, they wouldn't be striking.
