Fuck yeah!

Tried to be legal for a while but they keep increasing the price for stuff I can't own...

So I'm back to 100% theft.

[-] starman2112@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 years ago

Almost correct, except piracy isn't theft

[-] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Yup, it's copyright violation. And copyright is intended to prevent companies from stealing content from creators, not screw over customers.

Make the content easy to access or people will find another way.

[-] soloner@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Same. It's the thought that counts. Better than just blindly pirating without any attempt to participate in the market. But when the market gets absurd like this, this is the only recourse.

For more infos, visit c/piracy (Someone teach me how to properly use fediverse links)

I'm stupider. I pay for a bunch of streaming shows, have a large Plex library, and will still often watch Pluto with commercials.

Usually halfway through I'll realize I'm being stupid and finish the show on Plex so I don't waste time on commercials.

[-] KillerTofu@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I say this to my spouse all the time, it’s on our Plex? Why are you watching it with commercials?

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Why are you watching it with commercials?

Apparently because they're stupider 🤷

Edit: what's with the downvotes? It was a lighthearted reference to their own assessment, not mine 😄

[-] KillerTofu@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Well it wasn’t my assessment.

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

I bet they'll be willing to share custody of it if you ask nicely, though 😉

I setup jellyfin with private tracker finally last week. We haven't used any streaming service in years, so I was shocked to find out we would have needed 3 different services for 2 movies and one series we wanted to watch.

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

But what if...I were to torrent my media instead of paying exorbitant amounts to multiple companies? Oh ho ho ho, delightfully devilish, Seymour!

[-] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 16 points 2 years ago

its been fun. ive been sailing the seas for.. shit... since inception. remember Myth!? watching all these providers come and go is almost entertaining.

the only real affect ive ever felt was once streaming became a thing, that content became higher quality and hits the water far faster than it used to. so, thanks for that!

Chuck it into Sonarr and let TRaSH-guides deal with whatever source is the best.

[-] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

Amen, Lucifer.

[-] MontyGommo@lemmy.one 13 points 2 years ago

Haha, nice to see another Aussie here!

I wouldn't mind paying for streaming services IF and ONLY IF they had everything day one just like Spotify works with music. I fucking hate paying for Netflix just to realize I can't watch something new as it's Paramount+ exclusive, and P+ doesn't even let me register in my country. Always sailing for anything video related.

These brand names are out of hand.

Hulu Fubo Roku Quibi Seeso Freevee Kayo Hayu

Is that the next Pokemon Gen? I can't keep up with it these days.

[-] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Simo Häyhä? I barely knew her!

[-] galoisghost@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago

I have Paramount+ to support the A-Leagues. Optus Sport to support the WSL and NWSL. Prime because I’m weak and shop on Amazon and Proton VPN for everything else.

[-] soloner@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Does anyone know how I can get on a private tracker site. I have a whole containerized home server setup but still stuck on TPB. I'm ready to serve. Would love an invite.

[-] dullbananas@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago
