Treat the collection as a curated selection
The official FAQ describes both contemporary releases and restored classics. Use the title, year and credited edition when finding a particular work. A restoration and another available version can differ in presentation or extras. A distributor’s wider home-media catalogue is not proof that every disc or bonus feature appears in the subscription collection.
Check the regional edition of the offer
The publisher identifies United States and Canadian availability and warns that not every title is available in Canada. Keep that qualification with a film recommendation rather than assuming a shared platform name produces identical catalogues. An international film’s production country is a different fact from the countries where its streaming rights apply.
Keep direct and Prime accounts separate
The FAQ expressly says the Prime Video add-on requires a separate subscription and cannot be used through the direct website and channel apps. Match the receipt to the environment showing the programme. A valid login to the direct service is not evidence that a subscription purchased through Prime has automatically been attached to it.
Old purchases require their own history
The FAQ also retains a Kino Now closure notice with a download deadline in 2024. That is historical transaction information, not a current unlimited-download promise. If an old purchase is the issue, retain the original receipt and use current official support before subscribing again. No account, film transfer or paid playback was tested for this guide. The retained notice sets 30 November 2024 as the old temporary download deadline. A still-visible historical link is not evidence that the recovery arrangement remains operational today.

Are the US and Canadian catalogues guaranteed identical?
