I mean, you can just search here whenever you want to look for deals: https://www.blu-ray.com/deals/?so...nywhere=on

There are menu options for other services and if you are looking for 4K or HD moviesanywhere options. I do appreciate these alerts, so thank you OP.

It might be safer to check the moviesanywhere site. I've been using blu-ray.com for years, but since their database is like 99% user submitted, it can be full of errors. I've seen this a lot with digital movies missing MA when they were, and even being tagged as MA when they weren't due to a license change or something. There are also odd situations where a movie will transfer to your MA account, but only from certain providers due to delistings/re-licensing's.

Oh definitely confirm before purchasing, that's what I do before making a purchase. I was simply saying the list of potential movies is easier to narrow using blu-ray.com, and then you can swing back to moviesanywhere to make sure it is listed and available to purchase at the price offered.

Sometimes moviesanywhere is slower to update prices, so searching elsewhere may help someone find a deal too.

Yeah that's the site I use. It's good majority of the time but it doesn't seem to track all the movies. Interstellar is $5 but somehow it's not showing up there.

Might be cheap to buy but the reality is you really don't own any of these and they can shutdown at anytime. Similar to Google News.

The last time they shutdown a service in which I had bought content, they refunded the money I spent. The service was Stadia. I got all my money back when they shut it down.

Also to note, the movies play on YOUTUBE, I doubt they'll ever shutdown this service. Another nice thing is I play these movies in the background while I'm working. I've never seen an office block youtube but they have blocked other streaming sites like netflix, disney +, hulu, etc.

The biggest threat is the license holder taking away the rights of any of the streaming services to stream the movie. This has happened in the past.

This in my opinion is why if your going to buy digital movies you are much safer with MA titles.

Plus there is a big difference between streaming sites as far as the bit rate they stream at.

From what I remember it's Apple/MA/with the others a lot worse. I believe it was Amazon who streamed in a bit rate slightly above blue ray quality.

Tbf, they shut down Stadia because they didn't make money on it as it never garnered interest. Google makes money hand over fist on movies and such. The only reason why they would part ways with it, is selling it to another company because an anti trust lawsuit forced them to.
