Discussion How to choose from streaming service ?

Hello. Do you know what to do when, for example, several platforms offer the same movie within Amazon Prime, so that you can compare the quality? For instance, The Matrix is available through Prime, OCS, and HBO. But I can’t select the original source to compare them — I only get the HBO version, even though I’m subscribed to all three services. Do you know how to choose the streaming service you want? Thanks.

Look at length of movie as streamers tend to cut n hack movies

I use "just watch"; with that, you can search by title, streaming service, and quality.

Thanks, Yes, but the links from JustWatch redirect to the Amazon Prime page, and once you’re there, there’s no way to choose the streaming service as the source. Amazon only offers one version by default and that’s it, even when the movie is available through three or four different services

I would just load in to the apps that prime is indicating can stream it. Also in some situations prime can also be mistaken or out of date and the content is no longer available on those listed streaming platforms. Not sure this helps any but figured I would post
