    If they ever come out with a service that has everything, no commercial breaks, and you can download for offline use, those pirates will be in real trouble.

      Remember when Netflix almost had it perfect?

      At one point it was the answer to piracy, IMO. I only ever subscribed to it and Spotify.

      Then every studio and media corp decided to take us back to cable.

        Yeah it was awesome. I didn’t download a thing for years because the service was good and price was fair.

        This year I finally gave in. Paying for 6 different streaming services and still not finding the movie we wanted to watch made me get a NAS and cancel (almost) all subscriptions. We kept Spotify and Netflix.

        They can all get bent, literally.

        Smaller host sites are generally full of junk and difficult to use, plus can’t beat the speeds/infrastructure of something like Netflix.
