Not quite.. it also means that you can't stream it from your library either. So effectively it is the same. This is a cautionary tale for those who are buying iTunes 4k movies and can't stream 4k from a local device on their network https://www.macrumors.com/2017/09/21/itunes-4k-content-strea...

I think a more analogous sequence would be:

* The store offered to keep a DVD in safe-custody while you moved addresses.

* You accepted the deal and shipped them the DVD.

* You arrive at the new address, and the store refuses to deliver the DVD.

Hence the rankle.

[edit] bulleting

Not quite the same, as the implication is that you can stream indefinitely. You _can't_ download 4K videos, for instance.
