Best free streaming site lists and media indexes (2026)

Total of 8 Index sites - Last updated: 21 Jul 2026

No directory covers everything, this one included. The 8 media indexes below are the other free streaming site lists worth checking when nothing on this site has what you want, and a few of them are kept up by people who check things as carefully as anyone here does. There are no ad-scores on this page, since these are lists rather than sites you watch anything on.

What an index actually is

An index does not host or stream anything. It is a maintained list of links to other places, which is exactly what this site is. The entries on this page are the other lists worth knowing about, some far larger than this one, some maintained by communities rather than one person.

They are useful for a specific situation: when what you want is not on any list here. A broad index covers software, books, audio, and regional services that fall well outside streaming.

How to judge one

Check the last-updated date first, and be sceptical of any list that does not show one. Dead links accumulate fast in this corner of the web, and an index that has not been touched in a year is mostly an archive of things that used to work.

The better ones explain their reasoning rather than only listing names, and they tell you when an entry is a clone. A list of two hundred unsorted links is less useful than a list of twenty with notes attached.

Why there is no ad-score on this page

The scoring on the rest of the site measures what happens when you try to watch something. An index has nothing to play, so the measurement does not apply. These entries are ranked by whether they are maintained and whether their recommendations hold up.

Common questions

Why link to other indexes at all?
Because no single list is complete, including this one. If the thing you want is not here, sending you somewhere that might have it is more useful than pretending otherwise.
Are these safe to browse?
They are lists of links, so browsing them is about as risky as browsing any forum. The risk sits with whatever you click through to, which is where the usual advice about blockers applies.
Which one should I start with?
Whichever covers the category you care about. The broad community-maintained indexes are the best starting point for anything outside film and television.
