Small streaming providers like Chili, Rakuten or Videobuster are often overlooked.
They offer many advantages for film and series fans.
Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney + - most people have one or more accounts with these providers.
After all, the streaming giants offer a wide range of series, films and documentaries.
These include award-winning in-house productions *.
Smaller online video stores have a tough time comparing them.
But providers like Chili, Rakuten TV or Videobuster are real insider tips.
Chili: Stream without a subscription
Chili
is the perfect streaming service for the undecided. Here, users can rent or buy films and series without first having to take out a subscription. To do this, first create an account with Chili. Registration is free and also possible with a Facebook or Google account. Afterwards, users can select films from the large video library and decide whether they want to rent or buy them. Payment is made via PayPal, credit card or Klarna invoice, for example.
The films can be downloaded and accessed offline.
The prices depend, for example, on the release date of a title and the quality of the film to be streamed.
New publications cost around 3.99 euros on loan - a purchased title costs an average of 11.99 euros.
But there are also very cheap offers: some films are already available for 90 cents.
If you don't stream regularly and only wait for certain blockbusters - Chili is a good choice for you.
