How about being respectful to the paying customers for once?I really don't understand this. No one has had their existing card taken away and anyone can get their money refunded if they no longer want to watch these cards.... where's the problem ?
The problem is that if for any reason I lose my data (file corruption, need to change PC without the possibility of making a backup, free up space in my HDD without running into this invisible topic, etc) I will no longer be able to restore them , even though I paid for them. Also for this reason, at least the announcement of the removal should have MUCH more visibility (email, prompt inside the app, superimposed label on the card in question, etc.).
Nothing against blocking the sale, I am against the impossibility of re-downloading the file for those who have already paid for it.
In addition to this, I repeat that I have never seen similar things done in other sites, even for long retired stars, even if they changed their lifestyle or carreer.
When you do this job, you accept the future implications this could bring, which is also why the fees are high. Luckily we live in a society that accepts everything by now, so I don't think the possible consequences are insurmountable. After all, I don't think she'll give back the money she's made in this profession. While if she has changed her mind and wants to erase her past, for consistency she should do it. Mind you, I'm not discussing the (respectable) choice when the general underlying inconsistency of such decisions.
Then I leave out the implications on the fact that I would receive the refund via credits and not real currency, which implies that I don't have a "real" refund of the money spent, but I have to reuse it in the app, perhaps for content that doesn't even interest me. I also consider the damage that Totem *****: I imagine that if from one day to the next they saw a large number of stars take this path (after the first one, why shouldn't all of them do it?) they would see their businesses damaged, when perhaps certain investments had been made under different conditions and with different profit projections. In short, I see problems from any side you look at it.
In any case the decision is up to Totem Team. This move obviously doesn't make me feel too comfortable about my future purchases on this platform.
