Over the past four years, I've tried and compared a bunch of different streaming services on the YouTube channel I run and after going through hundreds of possibilities, I've come up with the best of the best.
You can watch my video on free streaming services here: https://youtu.be/m8iD0nV5Xqo
Category1: The Swiss Army Knife***:*** They do a little bit of everything
YouTube: Yes, I'm putting it in the same category as everything else because YouTube is now a source for long-form content AND people watch it on a TV more than any other streaming service. They've got live news channels, sports highlights, official uploads of movies and shows (with ads), and for myself and many others it's become our go-to for "sit back and relax" TV.
Plex: There's live channels, there's on-demand movies and TV (including a good selection from AMC Networks), a store for rentals, a JustWatch-style search area for any movie and TV show, AND the ability to convert your own media files into your very own little streaming service? I mean, c'mon. This app rules.
Sling Freestream: Yes, Sling TV has paid plans but it has an underrated free tier, too. Tons of free channels and on-demand content, the ability to aggregate some of your paid apps, and Sling Rewards just for watching TV. But the coolest part of all has to be the ability to connect their AirTV device to an antenna and use the Sling app to watch your local broadcasters over the internet, on any device (even if it's a bit wonky at times).
Category 2: The Big Guys: They are to broadcast TV what Netflix and Hulu are to cable
Tubi: This streaming service has become one of my go-to apps for finding niche movies and TV shows. While it's known for campy B-movies and horror flicks, it has a rotating selection of top-tier Hollywood films and shows, notably ones from Warner Bros like those from the DC Universe.
The Roku Channel: It's pre-installed on Roku devices and offers one of the best selections of movies and shows you can watch for free, including some originals. While their emphasis on "Premium Subscriptions" makes it feel like you're being upsold, I do come to this app often for their live channels.
Pluto TV: This Paramount-owned free streaming service focuses on live channels and is a low-key free alternative to a Paramount+ subscription. You'll find plenty of shows from CBS, live channels with Paramount Plus originals, and a movie selection with a surprising amount of overlap with Paramount+'s paid plans.
Honorable mention: Freevee, this app from Amazon was a go-to for many, even if it's gradually withering away as it absorbs into the Prime Video app.
Category #3: Library Card Required: Watch ad-free movies with a free library account
Kanopy: Fantastic selection of indie films from studios like A24, classic films, indies, and even some big budget flicks like Terminator 2. Great for film aficionados.
Hoopla: Similar concept for Kanopy but also features audio books, comics, and even some streaming subscriptions like Hallmark+ and CuriosityStream with what they call BingePasses.
Category #4: Local Programming: Might not have full-feed of broadcast TV but still can get local news
LocalNow: Gives you a wide selection of local news broadcasts from a variety of cities, in addition to various entertainment networks and on-demand movies and shows.
Haystack News: Aggregated selection of live and on-demand news, both local and national.
PBS: Gives you free 24/7 access to your local PBS and PBS Kids stations.
What do you think of this list? Any of your favorites I missed?
Why YSK: If you love movies but hate subscriptions, Flixbaba.com lets you stream movies and shows completely free – no sign-ups, no credit card required.
Cons: -Adult Ads
What Makes It Cool:

Hey everyone,
I came across this site: YesMoviesHub It lets you stream movies and TV shows online for free, no registration required, and they update it daily with new content.
The interface is pretty clean and fast, and I thought some of you here might find it useful.
Just wanted to share in case anyone’s looking for a reliable free streaming option.

Kanopy Library Card Required https://www.kanopy.com/en/login
As someone who can't really afford a streaming service 24/7 (though I do snag a lot of the free trials that get thrown out there) I've been relying more and more on things like Tubi and Freevee for my monthly movies and shows. Vudu/Fandango also carries a few fun things for free (though the app sadly isn't available on PS4 anymore), and Pluto TV tends to have a solid selection as well.
As an example of the quality work that Tubi is frequently showing off these days, they've currently got Heat, Train To Busan, Taxi Driver, Point Break, and Dances With Wolves all sitting pretty in their selection.. and that's just the very tip of the iceberg when it comes to the interesting things in their archives, much of it hidden away underneath the large pile of trashy stuff that they also tend to have lying around.
Blockbusters, indie gems, gritty action classics, forgotten oddball work; the variety that you can find on a lot of these services is just awesome. So if there's any other film fans out there who ever struggle to find something interesting to watch, I just wanted to say: take a scroll through the archives of these services, and I think you'll find at least a few things that catch your eye.
A friend introduced me to Tubi. It’s an ad-supported streaming service that doesn’t charge me a subscription fee. Wondering if there are other gems out there that I’m missing.
So, I know many of the popular streaming sites like fmovies, lookmovie2 etc but I was wondering which movie and TV streaming site had the most movies and TV shows and also uploaded the quickest among them. In the year of 2024,which sites would you recommend for very early viewing of TV shows or movies? Which sites would you recommend for having the most extensive and largest collection of movies letting you see even obscure and rare to find movies or TV shows? You can recommend one site or different sites that answer the question separately or jointly.
Update [2025-12-26]: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Here's a little Christmas Gift: The Vlix Collection at vlix.ai/4k, a library of 200 stunning 4K HDR films with Dolby audio, all of which can be either streamed or downloaded. Enjoy cinematic clarity and sound quality, and save these movies to your media collection forever. Please note: These links will NOT stay up forever... they are generously being shared with the community by an anonymous developer on github, and given that each file is 10-20 GB, it is only a matter of time before the server's bandwidth get s exhausted. We ask that you only download films that you / your family actually plan to watch, do not scrape the links indiscriminately because you will ruin the experience for other members of the Vlix community
In the future we will notify viewers in-app about any such issues that arise... We thank you for your patience and hope that you continue to choose Vlix.ai for all your streaming entertainment needs :)
Check out https://vlix.ai and be blown away: we've indexed every free movie and TV stream out there in a beautiful UI, added powerful ad-blocking technology (NO popups), and powered the whole thing with an agentic chatbot named Vlixy: she gets to know you over time, remembers what you like, what you've seen, and knows what you should watch next.
No signup needed, and everything is truly free. Start with the Web App first, it is the most recent version of the platform and has the best user experience (iOS and Android users should install the *web app* using the "Add to home screen" feature in their browser).
Of all my side projects this is probably the one I'm most proud of, even tho its impossible to monetize easily, for obvious reasons...
Hi there! I've been searching for websites that stream good movies online free. The site I used to use was movies7.to but it had been taken down.. please help. Any site I do find doesn't have the good movies or shows. Thank you in advance! 😄
There are a lot of sites that either have too many ads, buffer constantly, or have low quality without a subscription. What streaming sites for movies and series do you recommend? Anime sites are also welcome
