Finding where to stream your favorite Christmas and holiday movies can feel like a treasure hunt. Movies no longer stay with the same service indefinitely as licensing rights frequently expire. Comparing last year’s list of holiday movie locations, many titles have moved to different platforms.

This year, we’ve organized the list by streaming service. If you’re considering trying a new app or even subscribing for the season, you can check which holiday movies are available.

It has undoubtedly happened to all of us. We find ourselves subscribed to a service that we have no interest in or didn’t realize we had signed up for in the first place. The new Federal Trade Commission (FTC) "click-to-cancel" rule states that canceling a subscription should be as easy as signing up. While most users would celebrate this decision, many cable and entertainment companies aren't happy about it, and the National Cable and Telecommunications Association (NCTA) is already filing lawsuits to stop it.

Discover how to elevate your streaming experience with hidden features on your favorite platforms. Netflix's secret codes reveal niche genres, Apple TV tips customize your viewing, and Roku's secret screens offer advanced settings.

THE VERDICT

The Boom 2 Plus performs excellently when used as intended—as a party speaker, either outdoors or indoors.

For any party, the Soundcore Boom 2 Plus Outdoor Bass Bluetooth Speaker is an essential invite. As its name suggests, it's designed to keep the beat with deep bass powered by an impressive 140-watt output, thanks to the BassUp 2.0 bass booster. The passive radiator sides add to the party atmosphere with multi-colored lights that sync with the music.
