1988 was the year of the Writers Guild strike, so while your exacts may be
mistaken you're probably right that the licensing scheme is involved.

I cancelled my Amazon prime subscription, because of the ridiculous things
they did in France.

And following the dark pattern path to unsubscribe. I'm happy that I did it.

Fyi, I'm from Belgium

took in France that you are referring to?

Useful information but the results look like garbage in Chrome and IE. The
multi-line titles all run together and would greatly benefit from a table
outline.

Safari too. I just discovered that modern user agents don't include table
borders by default in their stylesheets -- at least, choosing Develop ->
Disable Styles didn't make the table borders appear.

I'm having flashbacks to the chiseled borders of Netscape.

Are these free on Amazon or is this just an advertisement for Amazon Prime (or
does everyone have a subscription but me?)

Not an advertisement for amazon prime :) These are free with prime, not free
for non-subscribers

I'm actually going to be cancelling my prime membership, which is another
reason I wanted to see what I could watch for "free".
