Many of you have heard of Netflix and Amazon Instant Video streaming services where viewers subscribe to watch movies, TV series, documentaries, etc. on demand over an Internet connection. Netflix and Amazon Instant Video do not sell subscriptions for libraries; fortunately, Kanopy does. Titles on Kanopy include classic cinema and the kind of films which you would find at film festivals around the world
Included with your Kanopy account, you have access to Kanopy Kids: thoughtful entertainment for children aged preschool and up. Titles within Kanopy Kids are rated by age of the viewer and the Kanopy apps have a “Kids” mode which restricts access to “kid-freindly” content.
Kanopy works like this: Each Kanopy account is given a certain number of credits at the beginning of the month. Each title within the Kanopy collection costs one of those credits. Each credit entitles you to watch a single title as many times as you want within a three-day period without using your other credits.
