Need something to watch while you wait for Game of Thrones to return in April? Then IMDb (the Amazon owned Internet Movie Database) has got you covered! Wait. What?
According to Mashable:
“IMDb Freedive offers a variety of content, spanning film and television, at no cost. There is no IMDb or Amazon Prime subscription required, as the service is supported by advertisements. Viewers simply need to create a free IMDb account to begin watching.
Older movies like The Illusionist, Memento, and The Last Samurai are currently available to watch on the service. Fringe, Heroes, Without a Trace, and The Bachelor make up some of Freedive’s current television offerings. (There are multiple categories on the service, including drama, comedies, horror, action, family, and so on.) The streaming service also boasts of a few IMDb original series’ that take a look at the movie and TV industry.”
Just when you thought that Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBO Go, and every other streaming service would provide you with an infinite number of viewing choices here comes another offering from an online database of all places. Cord cutters may be rejoicing but personally I’m not sure what to make of it. The last thing we need is more content. What we really need is a better way to search through and discover what we already have.
Is Freedive the Greatest Idea Ever?
