Except for viewers residing outside of the US.
Edit: Ok, I used dewey's link above which doesn't make it obvious you can change the country you're viewing from and then be presented with content for the UK. So for the UK it'd be:
https://www.justwatch.com/uk/movies?monetization_types=free,ads https://www.justwatch.com/uk/movies?monetization_types=free,...
To be honest pretty much every movie I tried here was either:
- Free with Amazon Prime (you need a paid subscription)
- Available on BBC iPlayer (you need a paid TV License)
- Available on BFI player (subscription based. Also good luck getting their shitty player to work even on a bog standard Windows 10 OS with Chrome, Firefox or IE - even with every plugin turned off - even NowTV makes a better fist of this, and they still insist on you downloading a separate player if you want to watch on Windows.)
- Free but Ads - mostly provided by tubi.tv which at the moment is unavailable for EU users due to GDPR.
Ok, maybe I could subscribe to a VPN, but meh.
So I kinda think my assertion still stands.
- dewey 8y agoIt's also available in a bunch of other countries: https://www.justwatch.com/ https://www.justwatch.com/ - maybe your's is listed too?
- teh_klev 8y agoSee my reply above.
- dewey 8y agoNot sure where your criticism about Amazon Prime comes from. If you select Prime and Free/Ads it doesn't give any results for me. I wasn't aware of the Tubi TV issue, thanks for mentioning it. https://www.justwatch.com/uk/movies?providers=amz,amp&monetization_types=free,ads https://www.justwatch.com/uk/movies?providers=amz,amp&moneti...

- DanBC 8y agoIn the UK you need a licence to watch live TV broadcast (however you watch those, and where ever they're broadcast from), and also since 2016 for BBC iPlayer. "live", "tv", "broadcast", etc are all defined in the law. It's a bit cumbersome. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_licensing_in_the_United_Kingdom#When_a_TV_licence_is_required https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_licensing_in_the_Un...
