Wait, they’re not letting you stream because of your OS? That’s bullshit, I’d pirate it on principal at that point. No sense in waisting time trying to get your browser to report a different OS to work around it.
Using Linux means DRM protected content either plays in terrible quality or in RakutenTV’s case not at all. Netflix is limited to 720p with low bitrate and Amazon limits to ~540p.
Changing user agent doesn’t work because it’s the DRM who decides whether the OS is supported.
Linux users have to decide between low quality legal streaming services, or piracy with high quality. It’s not a difficult decision for me and my giant HDD.
Edit: I forgot the third option: streaming sticks (Roku, FireTV).

No idea if WINE can run UWP.
If it can there may probably still be issues with DolbyDecMFT missing (no audio) and maybe a black screen due to HDCP error
I believe winRT support needed for running uwp apps in wine is still in it’s infancy.
There’s works towards it? Cool news! And here I thought that nobody cared enough about UWP
It’s the only way, they can go fuck themselves
