• Allow 3-4 weeks notice (if possible).
• Streaming titles can cost anywhere from $150-$350, depending on vendor and film title.  The license is a yearly license, and can be renewed.
• We will do our best to inform you of renewals, but keep in mind when a title is purchased this is for set period of time.
