      Getting harder and harder to do that now that streaming cancer has festered in allcthe major movie makers.

      Game pass is video game netflix.

      Then they disappear over generations. Nintendo has turned systems off already. Arcade games I bought on my 360 cannot be downloaded on my Series S.
