Comparison of video streaming aggregators

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Video streaming service aggregators are search aggregation services that scan multiple video streaming sites to list movies and TV shows available on various platforms.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

These sites do not host the content but instead provide links to the service provider sites, directly to the movie or show page in many instances. Search results may also include DVD, Blu-Ray, or digital purchase/rent links, links to facilitate obtaining theater tickets, or to see ratings and reviews from other sites. Registering with these sites is usually not required although doing so can provide additional functionality such as personalized watch lists, price tracking, and customized/saved searches. Some of these sites also have mobile apps.
