Do we really have to go through this shit again? As long as you refuse to make watching movies convenient and reasonably priced, people will pirate. You were already so close, but then you got greedy and fucked it all up again so here we are.
They really had achieved the dream. They made a streaming account affordable and more convenient than pirating, so they had tons of customers, with piracy a long lost pastime for people like me. Then they got greedy like you said, and annoying, and many of us dusted off our sailing gear.
While streaming services have been undergoing enshittification, the tools for piracy have been getting more convenient too.
The arrs are amazing. I had been out for a while. It’s more fun than streaming. Random stuff shows up that I wasn’t expecting when it downloads a new show or moviess that I like.
What are the arrs?
Radarr, sonarr, prowlarr and others. Apps that monitor your library, your preferred shows and movies and download them automatically for better quality or just new releases. Particularly good for tv shows.
For real! Stremio+Real-Debrid is amazing. The fact that you can stream torrent now is so cool.

They can’t help it; it’s in their DNA.
No, it’s a learned behavior.
Just say NO to MBAs.
These companies are just mad that their movies sucked and didn’t make any money, so they’re saying they’re losing profit from piracy… what profit?!?! No one wants to watch Hellboy 2019 for free, much less put in the time and effort to pirate that garbage. And if they are, then I feel like having to watch any fragment of that movie is punishment enough.
Honestly, I don’t see a problem with pirating a movie that came out 5+ years ago. After a movie has left cinemas and can only be seen via DVD/blueray are the studios really making much money back from those? They’re definitely not making any money on DVDs/bluerays bought from secondhand stores.
And why the hell would I buy a region locked Blu-ray, and be forced to watch through those FBI piracy screens?
I agree watched that movie one time i would defiantly never buy that movie.

Reddit says First Amendment rights protect it from having to disclose users’ info.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Is that… is that why, though?
No. It’s because they want the studios to pay for that information.
They already know who I am lol. I don’t hide it at all, straight raw dogging it without VPN or anything. Thankfully they can’t do anything because they would lose money pursuing me.
The joy of being Canadian.
This sounds like something I’m waaaay too European to have to worry about lol
They fucked users and now they are salty that they left for piracy. Lol.
