Oh yeah. It's totally obvious that they want subscriptions. Like the whole fracking world do. Dammit. I don't want to have to be online to watch stuff. Sometimes I don't HAVE connection. I also don't want stuff just disappearing like it does. I'm happy to pay out good money - but once (well maybe twice - I have upgraded DVDs to Blu Ray). Not every dammed month.

God it's all just so depressing...
