I pay more for my personal setup each month than I would have to pay for all streaming sites combined.

Yet it's the ease of having Arr's and a personal server with almost zero limits to stream any content I want.

My setup includes :- Dedicated Server Usenet Indexers and Private Trackers

The only time I wouldn't find a movie or show I want would be a really old obscure media which doesn't seem to exist anywhere.

Everything else is grabbed from both via my Arr's and life is chill.

If I wanted to drop my Netflix, Prime, and Disney+ and still have lots of options for stuff to watch, what would you guys suggest. Please explain like I have the IQ of a half eaten apple that's been sitting out in the sun for a week, I can barely figure out Lemmy having come over from Reddit.

Now that stremio + torrentio exist piracy is MORE convenient than streaming.

Dropped Netflix and got a Plex share with tens of thousands of movies and TV shows. Costs less than their 4K plan for several streams. Now they’re doing the “you can’t login in more than one location” bullshit? Back to sailing the high seas for me and hopefully many others

This reminds me of the meme subreddit called r/Piracy. That was quick.

I'm so glad to see people other than me annoyed by this.

I think they're already over the tipping point.

Because of their enshittification to chase pandemic profits, it's just so much better to pirate now.

Spotify and audible are the only ones I pay for. Too convenient. I would be open to dropping audible if there was a good alternative.
