The average movie fan has been quick to embrace the convenience of streaming films from Netflix, iTunes, and Amazon.com. But for discerning cineasts, those libraries are too mainstream, the video quality is shabby, and the director's commentary (a crucial feature on DVDs) is notably absent. Enter TheAuteurs.com, a new Silicon Valley-based site that delivers video-on-demand for film buffs—from obscure international releases to up-and-coming flicks found only on the festival circuit—at $5 a pop. Through an exclusive partnership, Auteurs also provides access to the Criterion Collection's legendary archive of director's cuts and DVD extras.
