      Piracy is a hassle, the convenience of streaming made the cost worthwhile. They’ve forgotten this. Once the cost outweighs the convenience, the hassle won’t seem like such a hassle anymore.

        Kodi, Seren add-on and a debrid provider like Premiumize gets me better service than any streaming provider. Multiple source streams on any show in the last couple decades and every movie way earlier than is available from any source I’ve ever seen. If its not available as a cached stream, I can queue a torrent file at their end and stack them up until I’m ready to watch it, but I’ve rarely had to do that.

            That just saved me a lengthy troubleshoot with the wife while I’m on the road, she was texting me to say Kodi wasn’t giving her sources when your message showed up on my Lemmy client.

            Thank you, good timing.

              I can say issues only happen briefly if ever. Am 5 years in.

              Prob resolved ~50 mins of me having posted this of course I didn’t update with uptime update. 😅

              I was thinking it was the Trakt.TV free tier changes myself at first.

    I genuinely don’t understand why people still use Hulu when you can watch the same shit in better bitrate with no ads and no subscription

    We’re not even talking about a Plex server or anything just freakin stream it off the 1000 trusted sources

    The liberal mind is full of mysteries
