Why should it be any different if it was a TV broadcast? So the logo makes it all perfectly A-Okay huh?
You don't see a distinction between going to a movie theater and owning a copy of the movie? One does not entitle you to the other. You paid for a single viewing, in a particular location. By your logic, I suppose that the next day you could have gone back to the theater without buying another ticket.

I bought what started out as a duly authorized and sold copy of the movie. It was intended to be watched on my home screen. I format shifted so that I could watch it on my home screen. My format shifting in this case was not direct because of a failure of my recording equipment, but the end result was exactly the same and there was no collateral damage along the way.
