As movie stores, such as Blockbusters and Movie Galleries, are becoming slim to none in existence, many people have resorted to online options to watch movies. Many people prefer the online option to view their movies because it is often times free or cheaper than renting one at a store. Also having to be home or near a tv at the exact time your favorite tv series airs its newest episode is no longer an issue with these web 2.0 tools since they have both movies and tv episodes for their users. This instant availability has definitely been a major pro for users and is probably one of the main reasons movie stores are going out of business.
I found three web 2.0 sites that people can use to watch their favorite tv shows and movies. I took into account the websites' affordability, accessibility, reliability, and more to create my reviews.
Netflix is very user friendly. A con of the website is that you have to subscribe to the monthly fee of $7.99 before even using the site which means there are no free options. However after subscribing you can watch unlimited episodes and movies online. A pro of the site is that it also offers the option of watching through PS3. Wii, Xbox, Mobile, Tablets, Smart TVs, and Bluray players. I would definitely recommend this website to a friend due to all of the options the site provides.
