Never used Netflix, Torrents existed long before and better quality anyway.
- wnc3141 3y agoI used to sail as a teen, but now the increased effort of pick something out> find + download the torrent> stop the seeding> cast to screen is too much for me to bother anymore.

- doubleotwinner 3y agoDo you sometimes think how the world would work if everyone acted like you? I just don’t think there would be much video worth being watched if everyone stole videos.
- dunefox 3y agoThis isn't stealing, this is the free market at work.
- AHOHA 3y agoValid question, but ever thought how the production studios got paid before (and still) Netflix existed? Exactly, cinemas, local TV station buying the movies/show while adding some commercials, etc., they will find a way it isn’t yours to worry about, in fact, I think that way it’s better for two reasons: - Might bring back the quality of movies/TV as it was in 80s/90s, as these movies/Shows sold in cinema/to TV must maintain some quality and put some efforts to get back some revenue, if it was a low quality, they are out of business, only the good survived, natural selection at its finest. - It might also help to maintain some level of decency without the pile of degeneracy nowadays, as it’s easier to watch that by yourself, it isn’t at the cinema with your family/friends or local TV. Right now, most of the garbage movies/TV shows are funded by Netflix, and who’s funding Netflix? You. So you are indirectly responsible for the low quality of current movies, and torrenting them might kill that skewed business model and save the huma.. ok not that dramatic to save humanity, but might actually do something good.
- rc5150 3y agoI would posit that there isn't much video worth being watched in the world's current state. Without going down a subjectivity rabbit hole, the amount of filler content on streaming services is astounding. Finding something great is like sifting through the sand in a desert to find a tiny diamond. The juice just ain't worth the squeeze.
- adave 3y agoNope never was true, never will be.
