I mean I usually just google it, or, most smart TVs now have this built in feature where you can just search it and it appears on whatever relevant service usually. The problem arises when it becomes region locked, or when you can't afford seven services which are now costing like 15 bucks a month for no ads, or how every service uses a different frontend for their video pipeline and they all work like trash and are laggy garbage. It's still way better than normal TV or buying DVDs, though, the only upside to DVDs was bonus features, otherwise they just take up a bunch of space and it costs like 40 or 50 bucks for a new movie.
