Have you check with the licensing company. They have the ability to send DVDs for even the newest releases.

I don't think Disney+ or Amazon have public showing licenses. Please let us know if you find out otherwise! 

 

Rather than trying to find movies people haven't seen, you might try making old favorites interactive, to increase the draw. There are a myriad of interactive movie scripts on the web.

We have, for ages, shown family movies once a month. We try to get a recent release in the PG or lower range. We’re starting to bump up against the whole “everything is on streaming,” issue and having a hard time finding movies we’re licensed for out on DVD in the right time frame (forget movies we’ve actually heard of).

 

I’m not against figuring out how to stream movies, but because we haven’t done this before, I have concerns along the lines of: Do we just get Disney+ and cross our fingers, or sign up for Amazon this month and something else next? 

 

Is this something anyone else is running into? Suggestions? Solutions?

 

We don’t have Hulu etc owing to the fact that we have over 4000 DVDs, most of them donated, so it would be something our budget doesn’t really need on the patron end. 

 

Thank you
