YouTube is now renting / streaming commercial movies

How long has this been happening? This is the first time that I've seen it.

For ages. Sometimes they have pretty good movies for free.
- Yup. For a while they had The Terminator on there for free, probably around 1 or 2 years before it went back to being paid.
Over a decade. They promote it constantly, too, so it's weird that you only now noticed lol
- Lol I didn't know either, guess because I have ad blockers...
  
  They don't advertise them in normal ads (at least, I haven't seen any because I also block ads); they do so by having one of the rows on your homepage being movies. Like Recommended or Recently Uploaded. I see it pop up daily on my feed 😩
Knew it had been a long time, apparently 12 years.
