just got the email. gutted. especially since they had exclusive rights to criterion.
fuck.
oh well. Sort of pissed me off also how terrible their Apple TV app was. It used a proprietary scrubber... so you couldn't do the normal edge click to skip 10 seconds like on almost VIRTUALLY EVERY tvOS streaming app. Then to boot they included no flags on any of their video. So it all streamed through at default system settings (60fps, 3:2 pulldown, dolby vision) which looked terrible. So before playing Filmstruck I'd have to go into my Apple TV settings and turn off HDR, and set it to 24hz.
Still... their movie selection was ungodly. :( was actually worth all of that hassle.
