Buoy has signed an online distribution deal with Vyerfilms a curated subscription service which showcases independent films from around the world.

Filmmakers get 70% of the revenue, currently the highest share of all VOD services, so this is a real financial oppurtunity... that is, assuming people don't take advantage of the watch for free option. Oh well, just glad it's getting out there a little.

why would someone pay when its free??

One a month is free, more than that and you have to pay. Although I have to question the step size in their pricing model.

One/month -- free
Unlimited -- $20/month

Seems like they should have a step size in between. "Hey kid, first time's free. Oh, you want a little something, something? How about a dime for a couple more? Oh, you're a regular now? We have a plan for that too."

In any case, it's good to be up on a new platform, and one with the prospect of revenue.

I think it's one movie per month for free. 

Can't imagine it reaches many people.
