4. Use a Roku Device
The Roku Express provides you with access to 500,000 movies, and 1080p HD TV shows for a one-time $30. Select Smart TVs today are beginning to integrate Roku, so you will be able to access their programming instantly as soon as you connect the TV to your home Internet.
You can also upgrade the 4 K video to the Roku Streaming Stick+ and a voice-activated remote for hands-free viewing.
You can view current and past episodes from network and cable channels with your Roku device for free. You can watch some of the free TV channels, including Crackle, Pluto, and TubiTV.
Another reason to consider using Roku is that you can install premium streaming applications such as Netflix, Hulu, Sling TV, and HBO Now.
5. Amazon Prime Video
You can get Amazon Prime Video for free if you join Amazon Prime. Or, you can try Prime Video for $8.99 a month without becoming a full member of Amazon Prime.
You can also rent Amazon Prime Video movies at the same price as iTunes, but rentals are available to watch after renting for 72 hours versus just 24 hours via iTunes.
Nonetheless, you can still download 4 K and HD content for free, like original Amazon programming.
Believe it or not, streaming platforms like Netflix and Amazon are investing huge sums of money in creating exclusive TV shows and movies just like you to win over reluctant cable and satellite subscribers.
