13. Viewster
Like Hulu, Viewster is an Internet streaming video service. Viewster doesn't require a registration to view movies. Over 5,000 movies are currently offered on its site. The content on the site may not be as broad as you might find on Hulu or paid video subscription services like Netflix or Amazon Instant Video, though.. Doing a quick perusal of the site, you might discover some older films like The General, Intolerance, Nosferatu and a number of Charlie Chaplin films - all classics, despite their age. There is also very good selection of foreign films, though some of the other films fall a bit outside of the mainstream, as do a lot of the TV show selections. For example, one of the movies currently on the site is named Cyborg Soldier (2009), which currently has a 22% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. No, thanks.
