Situaiton
Last night I went to play a scene from Star Wars Force Awakens and it was dimmed out in my movie list. When I tried to play the movie the system stated what's in the thread title. I went to the K Store help which told me:
So I restarted my player but to no avail. Then I restarted my servers. That worked.
Question:
As this is a Disney movie, does the system look for authorization before playing every movie? Is this just a Disney thing or will it apply to all downloaded movies?
Is there another reason why the system needed to get authorization?
I'm wondering if downloaded content needs "live" authorization because we sometimes lose internet service and one of the advantages of local content is being able to view it when there is no connection. That would be a terrible shame if this were negated. I'm hoping there was another reason my system needed authorization.

Your download cannot be played because it requires authorization from Kaleidescape. Please ensure that your system is connected to the Internet and (optionally) restart your system. The authorization should be automatically transferred to your system within minutes.
