While trying to make a list about piracy, I realized that it’s pointless and that at the current day, legal free stuff is way more than paywalled stuff, if you are looking at the right places.
Also in my opinion, if free offering companies got big they will rise their products quality and eventually will normalize the culture of getting your stuff for free, instead of paying for it or pirating it.
So that bring me back to this question, is there is any currently active list of legal free stuff?
I would love this. Not only would it be great to have a central point but often times their search is bad. Even intentionally so. Like crunchyroll makes it impossible to see whats available to a free account. You end up having to roam around until you get frusted and realize plex, freevee, pluto, tubi, roku, etc has a pretty good selection with less runaround.
That’s intended. They want you to run into paid shows you might be interested in—while tech-savvy folks will realize they have better options, the average free customer will keep running into stuff they would want to watch but can’t because they don’t have a sub, until they cave in. If these services had a easy free-to-watch list, most of those people wouldn’t even spare a glance to the paid servings, as they could just entirely avoid them.
oh im aware. expecting me to cave is not a good bet though. there are two options. they can have my eyeballs for the ads which I accept for it being free or their competitor gets it. if they all go away I will visit the library more often. they will never. ever. get a drop from me.
