On most of these services you can download but you must be connected to the internet to verify that you have the right to watch the file you downloaded.
So... what's the point of downloading then?
Download stuff to your phone over wifi and watch away from home without eating up cellular.
Their support site literally says "when you don't have an internet connection" so if it's working the way you describe then it's not working as designed.
Last time they did it to me was amazon, its said I have to connect at least every 3 days to get permission.
I downloaded this stuff hours before I went to the airport.
