Hey, congrats on the launch. I noticed that you are using my API ( https://www.movieofthenight.com/about/api ) to get the streaming availability data, but I couldn't see any attribution regards to it. Can you please add an attribution as it is part of the Terms & Conditions ( https://github.com/movieofthenight/streaming-availability-ap... )?


Hi all, I wrote a Go tutorial on Medium about how to write a simple movie recommender based on users’ subscribed streaming services. It goes over how to search for the movies on the streaming services and how you can provide deep links to them.

The final code is available on GitHub: https://github.com/movieofthenight/streaming-availability-ap...

And the finished product here: https://www.reccio.com/

I thought some of you might find it useful, let me know if you have any questions/comments!


Hi, there's also a 'country' parameter to filter country availability. i.e. if you set 'service' as 'netflix' and 'country' as 'us', it will only return shows available in Netflix US.


Thanks, I completely missed the country option at the bottom. The dropdown doesn't have a surrounding box, so it looked like it was just text to me.


Thank you, really cool the hear that!


Thank you! I'm making profit off the API.


Thank you! Nice to see the compare page is being useful to people.


Currently it only shows free (included with Prime) shows on Prime Video. I just checked it and Mad Men is only available for buying or via AMC+ channel subscription.


Interesting. I've been watching it and it's free (ad-supported) with Prime. I have not bought it and don't have the AMC+ channel subscription.


I do have my algorithm to match them with IMDb/TMDb ids, though of course it's not always 100% correct.


Thank you! Yes, I'm planning to add more details like these.


Thanks for the suggestion, planning to add more details about these kinds of things.
