    I’ve been aware of Radarr and Sonarr and such for some time, but thanks to this meme, I get why they end with “arr” now. Thanks!

    If you’re going to have one service, the last one to get is Netflix. Hulu and Disney are $20 ad-free in a package right now. That’s probably the best value out there.

    Back when I was telling everyone to watch Severance.

    "Is that on Netflix?

    -hum, Apple TV I think.

    -you have Apple TV ?

    -…sort off"

    It’s the worst when you talk about a series you “acquired” and they ask you: “Cool! Where did you watch it? Is it on Netflix?”

          Glorified VLC.

          Look, for me to “stream” movies to my friends using VLC I have to set up a finnicky RTSP server and get the settings right and then even then half the time it chokes on the video and the stream stops because it doesn’t like certain file types/encodes.

          Jellyfin takes out all the hard work of setting up a complicated streaming service for you and your friends.

          Jellyfin can be self-hosted with Radarr to automatically download shows you want to it and be streamed with Jellyfin.

          Radarr is your personal fleet that will go plundered and get the booty for you while you lay in your comfy hammock drinking rum.

          (You tell Radarr a movie and it will download it for you, rename it and add it to your media center automatically, also for upcoming ones. Sonarr does the same for shows, downloads the episodes once they are out.)

    I always just say I pirate it. What’s surprised me is the number of people who then ask where I got it from. I assumed most normies would look down on it more than has been my experience.

      At my job my experience has been that people act like you would also steal money or something. I tend to say I forgot where the show streams Google it.

      I had cousins account and I found torrenting still much more convenient than having to open Netflix in the propper browser or app to play with semi-decent quality.

        In my country, Netflix shows often come out later than in the US so why pay money when I can get a greater variety of shows earlier for free on other streaming sites?

        Streaming is a gray area. Germany is relatively strict with torrents but on streaming, you neither own nor share it at any point

              In Russian law only sharing is illegal, not downloading. And proving your intent is impossible if you don’t have formal education. Basically “I didn’t know” is rock-solid defence.

                I think it’s technically the same in Germany but indent doesn’t matter that much so it’s illegal even if you claim you didn’t know. Also owning it is also illegal I think. When you stream it, you don’t own it.

                And honestly I don’t see the benefit of downloading it. Do I have to wait till the whole season is out or do I torrent each episode separately? Neither sounds fun. I can just click the episode I want to watch and watch it. Why bother to download it as a whole?

                  What does this has to do with anything? You just download and watch. You can even download and watch at the same time. Or download and watch later even without internet.
