It is a sad day and year for Piracy. Soap2Day was the best of the best. So was RARBG.

Why are all these piracy sites dropping like flies? There was no warning/explanation for why they went down. Higher running/maintenance cost doesn’t explain it, because why not just temporarily shut down until the bills come down? Plus, the timing is bang in the middle of the reddit protest too, which is setting my conspiracy alarms off.

      Looks like some of the mirrors are still up? But the message says

      “Hello guys: We have decided to close soap2day forever. We are very sorry :) Bye”

      So maybe the mirror sites will be going down soon?

        I already have Sonarr and Radarr setup. Might try Stremio next time I need to reconfigure everything.

        Soap2day was a quick way to watch things that aren’t very popular.

      Been relying on this one for years. I also have no idea what else is out there.
