Taking advantage of a free trial right now.

I'm liking the 'watch now' streaming video thing. The selection isn't huge, but I won't look complete runs of Kolchak the Night Stalker and Johnny Sokko & His Flying Robot in the mouth.

And the documentary section is outstanding.
We screened Hiding and Seeking last night. The production had a very casual home movie feel, but it packed a mighty punch.

I really liked the music, which was incongruously excellent for such a shoestring production. Turns out it was composed by avant jazz maniac John Zorn, and the band had Marc Ribot & Trevor Dunn in it. Wild!
