Guess what movies I don't loose access to? Yeah, the ones sitting on my hard drives, or physical discs.

Yea that's crap and if I were a consumer bit by this I would be expecting a FULL refund or a link to another service where my account's purchases transitioned to.

Sony being anti-consumer... again? No.

Yep. I always try to purchase physical editions for everything I really care about, and as much as possible, get the ones that include a digital code. The main digital-only exceptions are those that don't exist in physical format yet(i.e. there've been some unique situations where Prime/VUDU/Movies Anywhere had some kind of exclusive HD/4K version years before an official release) but there have not been many. On a couple of even rarer occasions, I've bought some 4K stuff on VUDU when it was on sale for around $5-$9.

Exactly. They should work out an agreement with VUDU or Movies Anywhere similar to what Ultra Violet did when it went under and if not, as you said, a full refund.
