Do you like going to the movies, but hate paying for it? There’s a subscription service out there that hasn’t made going to the movies free, but it’s taken a bit of the sting out getting in front of the silver screen. For $9.95 a month, you can get MoviePass, which lets you watch one movie in a theater each day. “The general idea was that we were looking at how entertainment was being consumed and there is this changing landscape that is much more of a subscription universe whether it be music, DVD or streaming,” said Stacy Spikes, chief operating officer of MoviePass.
