Maybe (HBO) Max Just Isn’t Worth It::Warner Bros. Discovery's latest earnings call reveals Max shed 700,000 subscribers in the past three months, even as it made money. That might work for Wall Street, but what about viewers?

I don't know, because all I do is pirate. I used to use Netflix five or six years ago, but it went to shit enough where pirating just became easier again.

Where does one find a decent eBook torrent server. Asking for a friend who reads. He speaks Canadian, you wouldn't know him.

Does it have to be a torrent server?

Why not use something like https://annas-archive.org/

Most public libraries have OverDrive. While not torrented, you can get lots of ebooks for free! (if there's a way to "keep" them from overdrive I'm not aware of it)

I am looking for a specific series that has about 40 books, spent about $35 so far at $5 each. Its pulp sci fi from the 60s. They take a couple days to read. I'll keep paying but noone involved in the original work is seeing a cent of this.

I can't find them at my library other than three audiobooks.

What series is this?

[–] grabyourmotherskeys 2 points 1 year ago

Dumarest. Studying it as much as reading for enjoyment.
