There's a few good things on here, but as it's purchased rather than rented, what are the chances of this eventually being discontinued? Hoping I can at least watch the movies I haven't seen out of the 100 free ones before that happens.

I may sign up to take a look at the free 100 but, I’ll never purchase anything from this site. There have been larger digital stores go under so no way I trust a small independent storefront. If they were to join MA, maybe, but I doubt that ever happens.

You don't have to sign up to view those. I just watched a bit of THE LUCKY DOG starring Stan Laurel, featuring Oliver Hardy without signing up.

Mill Creek's 'movie Spree' reminds me a bit of Netflix's setup, but that might be just because I'm not that familiar with streaming options, in general.

CHEERS! :)

Netflix had a lot more public-domain and B movies when they started out. Saw that MovieSpree does have a few things to watch for free and with no commercials, I guess just to attract people to it and spend money there later. But I'm still out the movie I got from Target Ticket...

Same here, but with CinemaNow, which essentially inherited TargetTicket's customers (as well as Barnes & Noble's Nook).
