> Accordingly, Disney will even restrict the availability of their old movies on DVD.

I don't know if this applies to Disney given they just launched a massive streaming service containing almost all of their back catalogue.

In that case, they're selling a subscription instead of selling movies, no? (I haven't used it, I don't know the details of how it works.)

What is this service you speak of? Disney+ only has a tiny fraction of their back catalog. (For instance, it is missing all of miramax)

They are referring to films created by Walt Disney Animation Studios. Also Miramax is owned by Paramount - so that would explain why it's missing.
