Same idea with the non-pirated computer games that are given away in
here. I only found a few on Reddit, but was wondering if the usenet has
it too. No piracy! Legal ones like from Apple, Movies Anywhere, Vudu,
etc.

Thank you for reading and hopefully answering. :)

I don't even know if there's a WAY to give away access to TV shows and
movies; e.g., if Amazon has "keys" to movies that can be used to
assign specific films or series to an account. I wouldn't be surprised
if npt; that side of the media industry has been moving very heavily
towards subscription based models, after all. They don't /want/ people
to have permanent license to any of their media, so making it easier
to buy for yourself -or others- isn't very high in their priorities.

But I think the best place to check would be rec.arts.tv,
rec.arts.sf.tv, and rec.arts.movies.current-films on Usenet. As for
reddit, well, I've no idea and no inclination to find out; they lost
me as a reader thanks to their recent assholery.
