I can download ten subtitles just trying to find one good one for a single TV show episode
Imo if they want to be so strict with downloading subtitles, they should raise the quality standards for the subtitles that are submitted.
Honestly that's a fair point too.
I believe the captions submitters are doing so for free, no?
Yes that doesn't mean that opensubtitles can't take their new found savings and use it to weed out poor quality submissions.
Wikipedia editors do it for free and yet they still maintain a high standard of quality.
Free trash is still trash.
