Crackle Free Alternative To Netflix

Ever since I got my iPod in my free time I've been working on Alternative Apps.

Now when you head there on any iOS device, it'll automatically redirect to the iOS section of the website, and for Android, it redirects to the Android section.

However there's 1 app I found called Crackle which enables you to watch movies, and television shows/episodes for free. The only cons are that it displays a whole lot of ads, additionally a bunch of iOS users have experienced this app crashing on them a whole lot. Now I haven't experienced that problem on my iPod Touch, but I currently have a lousy internet connection at the moment which causes a whole lot of buffering. Other then that the app is great. I put it on my PS3 earlier, and the only problem was the ads. I didn't have any buffering problems, no lag, it ran perfect on my PS3.

So if you're willing to deal with some of these minor problems to save some cash then you're in luck!

Here's a screenshot I took earlier!

what I love about ads is it makes alot of things free and it prevents piracy, that's why I'm against adblock, so yea I'd enjoy the ads :P

So, Axel, you enjoy watching mindless ads before YouTube videos, and spamming "1,000,000 visitor" ads on the sides of websites?

I'm not a big fan of ads, that's why I have the Adblock extension on chrome, and Flashblock as well.

I respect ads, but I don't like them as imo they just clutter the page.
