OMDB API key

I have a recently been issued a free OMDB API key and ratings weren't loading.

The error in the log shows an invalid API key.

I requested several more free keys using different email addresses and all of them say they are invalid.

Changing the subdomain to www fixes the issue.

Yeah I honestly don't remember why is the private used. For free keys it might be invalid. Sent a message to api owner to clarify.
