I think it's a different version of s movie that's important. If you bought the director's cut but downloaded the cinematic version then you technically don't have a license for that.
As far as I can tell, the most prominent argument is that it's a different copy due to stuff like the resolution being different, if you own the DVD copy and download the Blu-ray, that's what they get you on. I imagine that works the other way too.
IDK. The laws are a mess and the courts are largely bought and paid for by the copyright holders.
