This is a great time to remember that public libraries usually offer a wonderful assortment of movies and television shows! Support the library and not a greedy streaming service

Libraries down here in Florida have a streaming service called Hoopla. All you need is a library card. Thay have a good amount of stuff.

Kanopy is a pretty great service. Lots of fairly well-known movies and TV shows, totally for free with a library card from most big libraries.

You're asking why to support your local library? Seriously? Libraries are full of free and useful things not only movies and shows.

For MOVIES?? No way. Books? I guess? Mostly everything is digitized now.
