Streaming companies seen to think we've forgotten how to torrent and built a media box...
We are the minority though. 99% of people will happily drop their pants and bend over just to not lose their streaming services. Look at Netflix and their ad tier and cutting of sharing.
The average user is a complacent meat bag ready to take whatever corporations want to shove down their throats. So for anyone capable I highly recommend torrenting absolutely every piece of media you consume, and simply buying a physical disk if you want to support said media. If the media doesn't have a physical way to buy it fuck them, just steal it
I recently realised that my internet uplink is fast enough to stream 1080 to 3 family members, aka meat bags, and opened up my Plex server to them.
Lol, you are doing good work!
