Part 9/11:
The controversy underscores a crucial lesson for consumers: buy physical copies of movies when possible. Unlike digital licenses, which can be modified or edited over time, physical media preserves the original content. If viewers want the authentic "Birds of Prey" experience—unedited, brutal, and true to the theatrical release—they will likely need to purchase the film outright.
Additionally, this incident raises questions on how many other films might be affected by similar censorship, especially classics or mature content titles, as streaming platforms attempt to cater to broader or younger audiences. It also fuels speculation about the future of digital media rights and the control studios and platforms wield over our digital libraries.
