There wouldn't be any lights to keep on. It wouldn't exist after this change - it would just morph into the new service.
Right, but like I'm saying, just because they're saying it'll morph doesn't mean that it'll be simple for me or other users to access their existing libraries.
At my house, I have an Oppo Blu-ray player that has an app for Vudu; users cannot add new apps to this machine. I also have the older Apple TV that doesn't allow you to add any additional apps; it can only use the ones it came with. Between these devices, I am able to view 100% of my UV titles and 100% of my iTunes titles. Again, I am not able to add, change or customize the apps that are present on these devices.
If a new service were to be created tomorrow and the old ones discontinued, even if there were no issues with transferring my titles into the new service, I'd have no way to access them without buying a new device. That doesn't seem right to me.
