Not really sure why you contacted to request a portion of your money back as the product will be delivered generally about 1 week after airing.
But- this is the pointI am trying to make- it is being released without charge to run on CBS for free.
Correct. Just as the series was on Paramount/CBS. That is no different than before.
Why did subscribers pay Apple for this exclusivity in November 2022?
What exclusivity? Yellowstone offered no such exclusivity to Apple TV+ subscribers.
If the decision was made to release this without the prior restrictions that were in line in 2022 then Apple should be refunding a portion of the 39.95 that was paid for exclusive viewing of Season 5 Part 2 by everyone who subscribed.
Subscribed to what? You purchased a season pass. Season passes allow you to automate purchases of a season so that you do not need to log in and purchase the episode each week. It is not a subscription nor does it offer any kind of exclusivity.
When I contacted Apple their view on is this was in 2022(a long time ago)and their records show all the episodes were delivered to me in 2022.
This is indeed true as part 2 has not yet been released.
The amount of time that has elapsed since they took my money should make no difference if they didn't deliver the product.
Apple cannot deliver a product that the studio has not yet made available.
I pay Apple $45.33 per month, every month for their features that I subscribe to on their site. I do not think it is asking too much to that a credit be applied to my account and every other subscriber who paid for this in 2022. When a paid concert is delayed or cancelled the ticket holders are due refunds. I am surprised that this is not evident to others but perhaps I am inarticulate in my explanation.
That's not how a season pass works. If you have issues with the delay in release, contact the studio.
