Catalogue artwork can change and does not establish rights or current title availability. Make the test on the home connection and player that will be used after purchase. Write down the actual result, local time and plan period; the supplier can then answer a precise question instead of guessing from a screenshot.
Before paying, verify the present price, licensed content availability, number of simultaneous streams and support channel. If the answer depends on a feature of the app, distinguish the app licence from the subscription providing the stream. A short, documented trial is more useful than a large unverified channel count.
