Night agent came out this year and is 10 episodes. I didn’t check but assuming it’s 1hr/ep that’s 80million viewers. Wow
Ps. Checking a popular torrent site and roughly adding up the download count for all the season rips and adding a representative number from some of the individual episodes. Then multiplying that by 10 because there are other public torrent sites and many private ones we get 60k x 10. Even if you do x 20 it’s roughly 1 million. Out out 80 million that’s just 1-2%
- nilsherzig 3y agoBasically no one in my age group (gen z) knows what Torrents are let alone is able to use them. Most piracy happens via sites like s dot to.
- bozhark 3y agoGen Z fallen to the fallacy that you won’t own anything, smh
- jb1991 3y agoJust think of all the amazing content from decades past, even movies from not long ago in the 90s, that many gen z will never see and experience and enjoy in their whole lives because they can’t buy or rent or play dvds any more, don’t use torrents, and streaming providers have very little content from years or decades past. It a loss.
- purpleflame1257 3y agoA legitimate reason to own a current-gen gaming console: unlike most gaming PCs, they still have optical drives.
- jb1991 3y agoBut then you still need to get the DVDs from somewhere and most people don't want to buy a movie just to watch it, and renting DVDs is a thing (mostly) of the past.
- purpleflame1257 3y agoYour local public library is a great source for these--they even have Blu-Rays! I used to take out disks all the time, until my kids came along
- jb1991 3y agoI think that’s highly regional, and probably limited lifespan. Enjoy it while it lasts. Here in Europe, I haven’t seen a DVD or a CD in a library in many years.
- getcrunk 3y agoGod! I just went there. I hope they know how to use ad blockers at least lol
- Ldorigo 3y agoThey might not know torrents per se, but I think most at least know that stremio and popcorn time exist - I have no sources, but I'd expect most torrents nowadays to be consumed that way.
- bryanrasmussen 3y agoThe Night Agent was not good enough that you would want to go through the effort to pirate it, but it was slightly good enough to watch if you had nothing else to do after a hard day of work. I had no idea it was that successful, now I feel sort of bad for contributing to it.
- kondro 3y agoI'm surprised that I wasn't the one who wrote this review!
- bryanrasmussen 3y agoI guess the lesson to take away from all this is there are a lot of people who are tired after a long day at work and are willing to waste their time on something acceptable instead of trying to choose something better.
