WHAT EXACTLY IS STREAMING? Whenever you watch a show or movie on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Prime, you are streaming.  Streaming refers to the process of receiving a continuous flow of information over an internet connection. You are not downloading an entire film at one time, but rather your device can collect data as needed for immediate viewing.  You must have an internet connection to stream.

WHICH DEVICES CAN I USE TO STREAM MOVIES? You can watch these movies on your television using a plug-streaming device like an Apple TV, Roku, Google Chromecast, or Amazon FireStick – as well as on your computer, tablet, or smartphone.  Streaming options may differ between films.   Each film will note on which devices streaming is available.

HOW DO I WATCH ON MY COMPUTER? Simply follow the link provided in your confirmation email.  You will be able to stream your movie from your browser.

HOW DO I WATCH ON A SMART PHONE OR TABLET DEVICE? Simply follow the link provided in your confirmation email to start streaming your film.  You can also download our streaming partners app to your smart phone or table device.

I NEVER RECEIVED A CONFIRMATION EMAIL. WHAT SHOULD I DO? First check your junk email folder.  It is possible the confirmation landed there.  It is also possible that your confirmation may not arrive immediately.  Please wait a few minutes and check again.
