Microsoft isn’t offering any refunds. However, you’ll still be able to watch your previously purchased content and transfer it to other platforms like iTunes, Amazon Prime Video, Fandango at Home, Google Play, and YouTube.
After almost two decades, Microsoft is finally exiting the movie and TV distribution business. Going forward, Microsoft will no longer offer new movies or TV shows for purchase on Microsoft.com, the Microsoft Store on Windows, or the Microsoft Store on Xbox.
Users are not eligible for refunds on content they’ve already bought, with Microsoft pointing to the Microsoft Store’s Terms of Sale. However, you can continue to access content you’ve previously purchased in the Movies & TV app on your Xbox or Windows devices. Microsoft also says it will continue providing tech support for any film and TV content you’ve already purchased through its official stores.
The good news is that if you’re in the US, you can sign up for the Movies Anywhere platform to connect your Microsoft-purchased movies with other Movies Anywhere retailers, including iTunes, Amazon Prime Video, Fandango at Home, Google Play, YouTube, Vudu, and Comcast’s Xfinity.
