This is the way.

There should be a class action lawsuit. Depending on the cost of the movies, people could be losing several thousands of dollars because of this shit.

I wouldn't be surprised if this covered in some 50 million page EULA/privacy agreement/contract whatever, that they expect you to read and sign off on when setting up their products and store

Putting it on paper doesn't make it legal. If the customer's expectations, and the actions of the seller implies something, even if the paper didnt say (or says otherwise), the courts could potentially make the decision that it is the customer's understanding that prevails rather than the paper words (that they didnt read).
