Right, I agree. I was referring to the parent mentioning "the Netflix you all talk about". That Netflix is changing every day.

I used to use Netflix to ship me DVDs, then I protested the Qwikster move by switching to streaming-only, which was great for movies (for awhile) but has been shifting to TV content.

To be honest, I don't use Netflix much, but the value I get is still worth the $8/mo. Some months I don't use it at all, other months I binge-watch The Man in the High Castle.

When I want to watch a movie, I first hit Netflix (hey, free streaming!) to search for it... then I check Amazon Prime on my Fire Stick, because some titles are free. If it's available for rental, I'll pay the $4. If available for purchase only (or unavailable), then I'll hop over to the iTunes store on the AppleTV and hope it's available for rental.

Or I just go to canistream.it, which was about my only original invention ever, until I found out someone had already done it.

That site looked almost useful, until i found it doesn't allow me to search i.e. Netflix/Amazon Germany, as opposed to Netflix/Amazon USA.

Ironically, not useful in Italy!

It doesn't really work for Amazon US either (well, works for DVD/BD only)

The man in the high castle? With Netflix? Isn't that an Amazon Prime series??

canistream.it is you? Or you mean you reimplemented it?

I do use that site quite a bit. It's very useful.

No, I didn't bother since someone else did it first :)
