Shashwati,
At my academic library we like working with Kanopy the best, though there are other nice platforms. Kanopy has great customer service and their administrative console makes it really easy for us to monitor licenses, see usage stats, pay invoices, etc. They also have a PDA program that works well for us.. we can make more titles available and pay based on actual usage. Good luck making your choice! I think it is great you are working on a way to stream your films. We have a lot of online courses and distance students so streaming has become pretty much a necessity for us.
