Losing Stars definitely hurt its catalog, but I still think overall it's one of the best services for the price. Unlimited viewing for only $7.99 a month? It definitely isn't the place to go if you're looking for some of the really big movies like Avatar or David Fincher's The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, but if you're into foreign movies or horor movies the service is a gold mine. Hell, even their TV selection is proving to be incredibly well selected, with shows I genuinely wanted to watch but never got around to (like Breaking Bad) or just shows I like to watch for an episode every now and then like King of the Hill or South Park.
