JustWatch, which tackles streaming fragmentation, launches own streaming service

A lifetime ad-free subscription is available.

The short version

• Launched today, JustWatch TV offers some movies available for free with ads that aren’t free on any other streaming service, including Green Room (2015), Locke (2013), and Sing Sing (2023).
• Other free movies include Fiddlin ’ (2018 ), Friday the 13th (1980), and Hotel Mumbai (2018).
• I could play movies available for free on JustWatch TV without creating an account.

What happened

The streaming service also sells a subscription for people who don’t want to watch JustWatch’s library with ads. It’s currently $4 per month or $50 for a lifetime subscription.

Why it matters

The latter is only available for a “limited” time, a company spokesperson told Ars Technica.
