Beginning in May, Google will prohibit users from purchasing movies and television series using the Play app

Google stated in May that it will discontinue selling movies and television series through the Google Play app. Rather than that, you’ll be able to access movies and television series via the Google TV app.

In the end, it doesn’t appear to be a really significant adjustment. Although this shift, together with Google’s decision to shutter Google Play Music in favour of YouTube Music, might also signal that the company is reducing its dependence on the Play brand as a digital goods retailer. At least for the time being, Google Play will continue to be your go-to destination for purchasing apps, games, and books.

Apple also divides the selling of its content among a number of different apps. Apps can be found in the App Store, music can be found in iTunes, movies and television series can be found in the Apple TV app, and books can be found in Apple Books.
