Starz Jumps On The Streaming Bandwagon, Launches Service For $8.99 A Month

TV Movie Starz Streaming Streaming Service about 8 years agoby Mick Joest

Starz has officially launched a stand-alone streaming service. The Verge reports the premium subscription channel will offer its lineup for $8.99 a month, which puts it well below HBO's $14.99 and Showtime's $10.99. If you already subscribe to Starz, you will be able to download the service free of charge.

Another attractive feature of the streaming service is its option for "virtually unlimited download." Users will be able to download films and television shows to watch offline, which is an AWESOME feature. I can't tell you how often I've had to stop and restart an HBO movie because of lag in the streaming.

Add that on top of that, Star Wars: The Force Awakens is coming to the channel soon, and I think I'm sold! The app is currently available in the App and Google Play store.
