I like to have downloaded files of movies I own. Thus I can watch them without and internet connection and also I don't have to trust the the streaming service will randomly delete my movie (as has happened).
- rconti 7y agoWhy not just rip them? I used to rip all of my DVDs, but then found I never watched those rips, and now I'd rather just pay $5 to watch the 4k version than track down my "free" 480i copy.
- asdff 7y agoTakes a lot longer than search, click magnet link, open file.
- Asooka 7y agoRipping them is exactly as illegal as torrenting while being harder to do and the tools to remove DRM from content are under constant attack. It's easier to just torrent.
- rconti 7y agoThanks, I didn't realize what a hassle the DRM stuff had become.
- darkpuma 7y agoThat's such a hassle. I only do that with movies I can't find good torrents for. (My local library has a pretty good DVD collection.)
