For one low monthly fee, we offer both live and instant access to a regularly updated library of great films.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>No contracts, twenty bucks a month, and you get what seems to be a pretty decent selection of movies. If you don&#8217;t want to sign up for the plan, you can also rent movies from Presto as a one-off purchase for six bucks each.<\/p>\n<p>Right now it works on Windows, Mac or iPad (no Android yet), and you can register a max of 3 devices to one account. The two big drawbacks for me? There&#8217;s no AirPlay and no TV shows.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d be interested to do a library comparison between this and Quickflix, because Quickflix is only ten bucks a month. Anecdotally though, I&#8217;ve heard Quickflix has a smaller library of titles.<\/p>\n<p>So overall, not bad if you want a local movie streaming option, but it is more expensive than Netflix, and comes with less content too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Presto is a new way for Australians to watch great movies.
