I’m getting an android tablet soon (will be a present and a little birdie told it to me). Nothing fancy, just some mid-range 10 inch one with basic features. I’m planning to mainly use it for comic books, but while I’m at it might as well watch movies on it.

So my question is: any good setup/apps/guides for movie streaming or downloading I should know about? I don’t have a home server, or anything, usually just torrent what I want on my desktop PC and watch it there, but I have zero experience with pirating movies on android.

I will definitely not use the tablet for social media, google services, etc so I can do with it whatever I want, it’s purely for comics/ebooks/movies.

    I’d say continue using your PC for the acquisition part of media and grab an app on your tablet that can connect via SMB or NFS (there’s quite a few on f-droid if you’re going full de-google). Then you can move over and files and not have to create a tech stack on the tablet.

      Thanks. That was my plan B, just wanted to see if there are more convenient ways of doing it.
