I agree with all of that. I think this site has a lot of value as an aggregator. It doesn't solve the Popcorn Time problem though because it doesn't make legally streaming movies easy. It just makes them easier to find them. That's not the same. It feels too much like they're trying to ride the wave of Popcorn time's success despite having very little in common. My main point in writing the critique is just that if you invite a comparison between your product and another you should make sure that they're actually comparable and that yours will come out on top. Otherwise you'll turn what could have been a warm reception into a cold one.

For me Popcorn Time's biggest value proposition is not free content, but ability the selection and ability to watch with one click. Most media companies, with all the resources at their hands still haven't nail the experience. To find the movie I want I really need to browse multiple catalogues (itunes, amazon, netflix) - neither of them always have what I want. Then you have to login, updates cards and all this hassle. So although right now their sites just aggregates, in the future it could allow you to prepay/buy credits which would be used to pay off the content owner/distributor (i.e amazon) each time you click Play. Point being - to me it make complete sense to compare it PT
