Is Wavelength (Free) Better Than Netflix or ThePirateBay?
I have a feeling this will never take off. Sounds too limited and not worth the hassle these days. Either way, the more options the better:
Plenty of online services, some more legal than others, offer users instant access to movie downloads and streaming. But one company has come up with a new concept for watching movies at home that doesn’t involve buying, renting or stealing movies. The service is cheaper than Netflix — it’s actually free for the time being — and legal, as opposed to illegal downloads from The Pirate Bay or other similar torrent services.
Dubbed Wavelength, the new service lets people stream virtually any movie they desire, though there are some caveats. In order to get access to movies, users who sign up for the service should either convince their friends to register as well, or make connections inside Wavelength.
What actually happens inside the service is that users can watch a friend’s collection of purchased movies, as long as those movies are also stored in the UltraViolet cloud locker system.
UltraViolet lets users who purchased a movie stream it online to multiple devices, and Wavelength takes advantage of that particular feature. That means up to three users can simultaneously watch an UltraViolet title shared by one of their common friends on Wavelength. The movies aren’t stored on Wavelength servers, as they’re accessed directly from the original seller, but the company also offers customers the option of purchasing movies if they so desire.
Even though the new service is legal, and doesn’t offer access to any pirated content, Hollywood studios might not be entirely thrilled about it. To some extent, and this might be a challenge for Wavelength going forward, this movie library sharing feature might convince some users not to purchase as many movies as they used to.
Wavelength is briefly explained in the video below, with more details about it available at the source links.

I know people who use popcorn time and they love it. This seems to he the same thing essentially.
