I'm subbed to YT premium, Spotify, and Amazon Prime. I primarily use Steam. I pirate via torrents for movies and series. No streaming services interest me. I've used a free trial for Netflix way back when and I was disappointed that some content was not available to download for offline viewing. With torrenting I can watch content in a better quality, I don't have to worry about buffering, I don't have to worry about discs and menus, etc. All I really want is just the mkv file and that's it.
Be sure to set up a Plex/Jellyfin server so you can stream your content to your devices
I've heard about Plex, but Jellyfin is new to me. I'll check both of those out, thanks.
I got to the point where I was downloading shows to put on Plex that I already had access to via a streaming service just to avoid using their app. I eventually decided to drop the service too.
Check out torrentio + realdebrid. $3/month, no need for a VPN or local storage for all the torrents you used to download.
That's a sweet deal. I'll check it out, thanks.
