Here's one swindle to rule them all. Google has angered movie fans by revoking access to digital copies of the The Lord Of The Rings: Extended Edition Trilogy – even for those who had purchased the films.
Though 'purchased' should be in quote marks. Because, as with most digital services that sell movie content, 'purchasing' just means the ability to watch offline. It's really more of a licence to watch – you never really own the content, as this incident shows.
