As opposed to what? Stealing them?
I think that’s what he was implying, but for me since I have Fibre Op cable at home, all the TV GO apps are free for me. So I have TMN GO, TMN Encore, HBO, Discovery, Space, Nat Geo, Love Nature, CTV, CBC, Global, Crave TV all free on my iPhone and iPad Pro. And many people have complimentary Netflix accounts with their home cable as well. That about covers all the movies and tv shows I would need while out. No need to pay for movies from Apple iTunes Store. In fact I deleted the new tv app. I use nPlayer for stuff on the phone / network attached drives at home and clouds, and use the GO apps for syndicated stuff online.
