I’m in favor of being able to pay to access a library containing 99% of titles in existence, even though i don’t “own” permanent access to them. If i had to pay a higher price to “own” each individual title then i would have access to VASTLY less media. But for that monthly payment it must offer access to 99% of titles in existence, and the price must be reasonable for the amount of entertainment value i actually derive from it. Spotify is a perfect example of a 99% complete library at a reasonable price. And yeah as you point out, the service must be available on all devices, like Spotify is.
Imagine paying to not own something and then being unable to watch because your device is unsupported. Whatever that means for a current web browser…
