The best website alternatives to Netflix
These three sites offer a wide selection of TV shows and movies at good rates.
Hulu.com is one of many options available to Netflix users angry about recent pricing changes made by the popular online and mail-delivery movie service. Hulu is popular for its wide online selection of TV shows and older movies, many of which are free. For $7.99 a month—the same fee that Netflix now charges for online streaming—you can enjoy the expanded selection offered by Hulu Plus.
Amazon.com has 50,000 movies and shows available to be watched instantly for $3.99 a title. A $79-a-year Amazon Prime subscription allows you unlimited access to 5,000 movies and shows.
Vudu.com, one of the cheapest video sites around, charges $2 per movie streamed and offers a wide selection of high-definition films on the day each one becomes available in Blu-ray.
