Why do links redirect through JustWatch?

When I find a show I want to watch and click on the link to my streaming service, I have a few problems:

  • links go to the streaming website, not the streaming application where I can actually watch it
  • links to Disney+ don’t work
  • links redirect through JustWatch

I could understand the last bit if they were using JustWatch as a resource, but then both services should have the same information for where to find a show. In reality, Plex is (usually) more accurate, but both have their own, distinct, errors in content availability. The current redirects are very sketchy. If there is a reason for the redirects they should be clear when I click on the links.

If they are using JustWatch as a resource, why can’t I sync the watchlists?
