Everything you say here makes a ton of sense.
I can only imagine some dumbfuck executive seeing this and going "Oh my god, we need to be charging by the episode! Sales will BOOM!"
Careful what you wish for.
Bought Brooklyn 99 on DVD recently since Netflix thought it was great to only put the first 4 seasons up. My biggest regret is that I didn't look more to find a brick and mortar store to buy from. Best buy doesn't even carry DVDs anymore.
Apple already supports buying individual episodes on the iTunes Store.
Not surprised. Apple is amongst the shystiest of shysters.
I mean....I know you prefaced this by saying they're a dumbfuck, but that decision would really be missing the forest through the trees.
Yeah, that's pretty much my point.
