The Criterion Channel
Having the world’s supply of movies and TV shows at your fingertips may sound great in theory, but in reality, that near endless stream of stuff inevitably leads to content overload. Some services may boast a large digital library, but what does that matter if the majority of it consists of the same repetitive garbage? That’s where The Criterion Channel comes in. Subscribers to The Criterion Channel are able to stream and download a highly curated inventory of films in The Criterion Collection which are selected with lovers of the best domestic and international films in mind. These films run the gamut of small art house entries to larger blockbusters like Godzilla which manages to stand the test of time. The power in Criterion is that just about anything you stumble on has a high chance of being pretty darn good.
The Criterion Collection is regularly updated every month which means titles in its roughly 2,000 film inventory will come and go.
Cost: $10.99 per month or $99.99 per year.
