  • Google is removing the option to purchase or rent movies and TV shows from Google TV across all platforms.
  • Purchases will only be available through the YouTube app or YouTube on the web going forward.
  • Users will be able to access previous purchases through Google TV, but new purchases will only appear in the YouTube library.

Google is streamlining movie and TV show purchases across its platforms by limiting all transactions to YouTube. With this change, users will no longer be able to make purchases through Google TV on Google TV devices and Android TV devices or through the Google TV mobile app.

Although Google TV won’t give users the option to purchase movies and TV shows, Google has clarified that previous purchases will still be accessible through the app regardless of the platform where the purchase was made. This change will only affect future purchases.
