Moviespree app discontinued as of 10/1
 
Just got an email from them about this- on Friday the only way to access your movies will be through their website. Fortunately it works with Airplay so I can still watch them in the same quality, don’t know if it also works with Chromecast. They will no longer be selling movies on their site either. Seems going forward they will be concentrating on add-supported content on YouTube.

Wonder how big a hit they took from that time last summer when all their codes were redeeming infinitely- I got 100 or so of them. I did pay about $5 for a set of 80s sex comedies I still need to watch.

Digital is the future!

Which stinks as I have some content there that is nowhere else. Some from the bundle packs and some from digital codes.

I had been using the Roku app.

For those that didn't get the email.

Update About Your movieSPREE AccountWed 9/29/2021 7:05 PM https://gallery.mailchimp.com/ae2f8e...38ff01ea9a.pngDear movieSPREE Customer,

movieSPREE is evolving in the coming year and has some exciting changes as part of our plan to be more accessible to more movie fans. (Check out our YouTube Channel with loads of full movies available to watch for free, with more being added weekly!) And while we can’t share everything that’s coming quite yet, our plan is to keep you informed of the positive changes and updates as they unfold.

Unfortunately, we were late to the game last week, and some of the changes went live before we could reach out. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and confusion that our delay in communication caused.

Beginning October 1, 2021 the only access point to the content you’ve purchased or redeemed through us will be at www.moviespree.com. You will also still be able to redeem new codes from recently purchased content. If you have any questions regarding the change, you can check out our FAQ’s or email us through the Customer Support link posted on the movieSPREE site.

We thank you for continuing to choose movieSPREE. We appreciate you!

How funny would that be if they announce all of their titles would be converted to MA.

While doubtful, that would be awesome.

So glad that I never got around to buying Kids in the Hall.

I will now be reviewing the content I own on this service and then figuring out what is or isn't worth still maintaining access. Then taking the time and evaluating the $$ to ensure we have the same content via another provider (VUDU, Amazon, or Apple).

I could never figure out how it worked for Mill Creek titles so I never bothered with trying to use it.

It was run by Mill Creek.

I bought a bundle of the entire series when they had it on sale for $8
I just checked their site now that the apps are dead, and it has vanished from my library...

I never expected to have to check the titles we own. Time to compare of my inventory sheet to the website.

Kind of figured this would happen, which is why I never bothered with their service in the first place. I always felt like Mill Creek was in it mostly to advertise "digital copy" on their physical media competing with studio releases since so many of their retail sales are impulse buys.
