$25 to rent the movie, one watch within max 24 hours after you start watching it... Or $5 more to own it. Scammers.

25 to lease it. You don't ever really own it

Yeah, it's more like "How long would you like to rent it for? 24 hours or until we decide to remove it from our servers?"

Yes, that is what "rent" means.

I think they were intending to bash the "buy" option.
