Netflix confirms it is increasing subscription prices, again, after adding 8.8 million customers::undefined
Netflix confirms it is increasing subscription prices, again, after adding 8.8 million customers::undefined
At this point, I don’t think I’ll ever subscribe again. 🏴☠️
Oh god no. Its the high seas or no see’s for mee’s
I am not that concerned about prices because I only ever have one subscription going at once but cancelling it Inside Job was the last drop for me. I’m not going to pay them to NOT make the shows I like.
Once you’ve used Stremio + a debrid service, you realise how much better everything could be. Just… the entire catalogue of shows ever made available all the time. I don’t think I can go back.
Does Stremio work similarly to Plex? I’ve not heard of it or debrid, going to look into it!
I don’t really know plex, I tried some media players like it ages ago, but Stremio just recently.
Basically it has plugins that link it to databases of shows and their torrents, then the debrid service links those torrents to cached versions that can be downloaded from the debrid servers at high speed so you don’t have to actually wait for a torrent. I also do it behind a VPN because that can get you in trouble if you end up using a torrent.
The only issue I’ve had is occasionally shows will get hit with copyright strikes that the debrid services will honour in order to stay in business. Usually another torrent will take their place but then you have to search for it in the list. Still better than Netflix just saying “no results” or “here are similar shows”. No, Netflix, I do not want something similar to the show I was halfway through, I want that show specifically. They may be fungible to your algorithm, but not to my heart. Fuck you, Netflix.
I unsubscribed when they killed account sharing and planned to subscribe just for one or two months per year to binge every show I like… but I may not subscribe again for a long time now, considering that these guys take their villain role very seriously, I mean it’s really hard to not dislike them right now. They’re like the Cersei Lannister of streaming services
