Maxdome is a video streaming service such as Netflix, Amazon Prime or Watchever too.

If you cannot understand the term "streaming", you should first read our understandable explanation of streams.
The video-on-demand service provides you with films and series that you can choose freely around the clock. So it's not like a TV where a schedule is set by the broadcaster.
You can watch the films on the PC as well as on the tablet, smartphone or TV.
Unlike conventional television, the video is not interrupted by advertising at Maxdome.
However, Maxdome is chargeable. You have the choice whether you want to "borrow" a film from time to time, buy a film or take out a monthly subscription.

If you want to use the streaming service intensively, it is probably cheapest to use a so-called monthly package for around eight euros. You can choose from around 50, 000 films and series.
You can enjoy the offer for one month free of charge and cancel the subscription at any time.
You can also use Maxdome without a subscription and buy or rent films or series individually. We have put together an overview of the costs at Maxdome for you.
To stream the films, depending on the device used, you only need the appropriate software, which you can download free of charge.
If you want to watch the films on a PC, for example, you need the free plug-in Silverlight.
And you get an Android Maxdome app for your smartphone or tablet just as free as a Maxdome app for your iOS.
