Radarr and Sonarr are both media downloaders and automation tools.
Radarr is for Movies
Sonarr is for series
Pawlarr is the tracker manager
You add your desired movie into Radarr, and when it's available in the desired quality, it automatically pulls the torrent via Pawlarr by searching hundreds of indexers simultaneously, downloads it using your torrent client. When the torrent is complete, it'll move it to your preferred directory and rename it appropriately. You can then use Jellyfin or Plex to stream to any device for the full Netflix experience, or just plug your laptop to your TV.
Basically this is an automated way to bulk download media on demand. You can create lists on TMDB/IMDB and any movies/series added will be synchronised with Radarr/Sonarr.
So you can add a movie while at work and it'll be downloaded when you get home.
>Why not just go on a torrent site and download the torrent directly.
Because torrent sites have been moving to APIs. Many no longer have UIs. This makes it harder to take these services down. So tools like Radarr and Sonarr are used to query these APIs for the desired torrent. You can search thousands of indexers simultaneously within a matter of seconds. The most obscure contents can be found easily.

It's good to have alternatives
I forgot to note that if you want a media streaming app, like suggested in that illustration, I'd recommend Jellyfin because it's entirely free and open source.
Plex has become bloatware with a lot of unnecessary shit. They're also pushing their own streaming content on users and some minor features, like streaming to mobile devices, are hidden behind a paywall subscription.
>Emby is shit in general.
It's OK. Not great or anything. Just OK. I used to get a lot of missed/wrong titles, but once you have radarr/sonarr feeding it metadata, it rarely goes wrong.
I mostly use it just because A) it has a Kodi add-on, and B) Kodi's the only thing I know of (and I admit that I may be woefully ignorant on the issue) that installs to a raspberry pi straight away as a stand-alone OS via i.e., openelec or libreelec.
Yeah, I could frick around with raspbian, and install kodi, and spend six days moving back and forth between my pc and my tv trying to get it to work with my remote, but frick all that.

You're much better off investing half an hour setting this up or 10 minutes setting up Stremio.
You will have a completely automated setup and never have to search for new sites again.
Complete freedom to download literally anything you want when you want it at the preferred quality and size. All automated.

So literally back to essentially cable?
>Hurrdurr it's basically cable
Not at all. For one thing you can get every streaming service and it would still be cheaper than cable. For another you have complete control over what you pay for without any long term contracts, moron. Why is it that the one time the market is geared towards consumers people are so desperate to reject it and return to the status quo? Is thinking for yourself too hard for you that you need an iPad babby to explain how streaming services work?
Steaming never been profitable. Amount of money for new content. Paying for old content. Simple subscriptions can’t pay for all that. Why Amazon going all adds.
> >They raise prices? >What? Why? How? What's the logic?
Actually fairly normal practice. You fleece the paypigs you’ve suckered in because inertia means many of them are unlikely to want to change. They get a notification of rate increases that they grumble about but still keep paying each month.
This is why cable worked. It’s how lots of subscriptions function. Newspapers, music, software - the hard part is getting the sucker to sign up first time. Hence the incentives like “first month free” or -20% for first year sub, etc.
not for long, technology is evolving, the internet is evolving, it'll be less and less possible to be anonymous online and there'll be more and more way to control what you're doing, I can easily imagine AI to check if your videos are pirated
Does anyone else feel like Netflix has just gotten way less relevant over the past 3~ years? The goofy-ass One Piece adaptation is the only thing anyone has even talked about from Netflix in what feels like years.
People talk about stupid shit happening from Disney and WBD all the time but these days Netflix feels like it's just there.
iv had netflix since 2004, used to rent a ton of dvds, copy them, send back, and repeat. had three 300 dvd binders filled with copied discs, i even used dual layer discs for long movies.
unfortunately they all rotted now, cant play a single one.
i cancelled Netflix over 2 years ago, i almost never watched it anyway, but it was like $15 and i didnt care.
ive also been a member of ptp and btn the entire time, netflix was just more convenient to watch something than having to download it and seed it for a minimum.
Not really. Streaming services seem to have forgotten that the only reason they are even a thing is because they were slightly more convenient than piracy but that can easily change if they put adds or rise prices.
Gotta make up for all of those lost subscribers. Milk the last of the paypigs for every last penny. Cut costs by not making new content anyone wants to see.
Why are millennials the only generation that pirate? My zoomer nephew doesn't know how and my Gen X relative loves his surround sound basement media center with 10 fully paid streaming services he never uses yet ALL my millennial friends pirate
Literally the only generation that knows how to use computers. Millennials grew up fixing janky early tech and learned everything about how it all works. Boomers are afraid of technology. Zoomers grew up using touch screens and dumbed down smartphone apps, they don't even understand keyboards or the basics of tech.
>Boomers are afraid of technology
Somehow, this now seems less moronic than 20 years ago...
The Digital Age is a paradigm shift similar in scope and scale to the Industrial Age, being at the very front of it has it perks but also curses.
Where did this "zoomers don't know how to use technology" meme come from? We have literally spent our entire lives on the internet and you shit your pants if you see a command line. You are dumb.
>We have literally spent our entire lives on the internet
and because of that, you probably don't know any of the tech knowledge to connect to the internet beyond asking for the wifi password, as devices constantly do everything for you now
I can guarantee that I know more about computers and technology than you do. You are just an out of touch homosexual who is seething that previous generations mocked you, and now you're trying to get out from the bottom of the totem pole. No better than the boomers

>Millennials grew up when you couldn't even get on the net without tech knowledge and nothing worked right unless you spent hours on obscure bulletin boards crawling for solutions
Maybe a few nerdy ones did, but most millennials did not care to learn such things and did not use the internet for much until phones came around. That's why the popularity of smart phones ruined the Internet

I wouldn't pay for Netflix even at it's original price unless some new flavor of the month dropped, but I get it free with my phone plan. I pay for Max and Prime while leeching off my parents Hulu+Disney bundle and my friends Peawiener. I also see films that interest me in theatres whenever I can. The rest I steal and add to my plex.
I'm cancelling any streaming service going forward that is imposing any price hikes (my family's just gonna have to suck it up). Discovery+ was the first earlier today when they raised the price $2/mo. for no reason. I had it with these homosexuals.
Convenience, plus my family uses them. I also have nearly 150TB of storage with thousands and thousands of hours of stuff on it, so I personally don't rely solely on streaming like they do (comes in handy at work though).
This is the direct result of the strike; the moment writers get higher pay, the companies need to increase subscription fees in order to offset the additional losses.
I'd respect you pirategays more if you just told the truth and said you're broke instead of pretending you have some intellectual high ground for typing in "watch movie free" on Google.
I'm a loser NEET but I've pirated online so long (since napster and shit but even before that via copying onto tapes back in the day) that even if I had money I would probably still do it to some degree just out of sheer fricking habit at this point.
Not all of them but most. Netflix, Hulu with live tv, Max, Disney Plus, Peawiener, Prime Video, Paramount, and recently got the AMC+ addon but just for spooky season. Also I go to the theaters at least 3 times a month.
I have basically all the streaming services through my bf's parents. I don't pay for them at all. If they don't have something I want or do something gay like remove episodes or use the wrong aspect ratio I just pirate whatever I want.

Okay so im looking at doing a media server that I can share with my boomer parents. Thing is they are fricking boomers who love their UIs, from what I have seen online Plex is the way to go. Is this shit too hard to set up and maintain? I want to help them save money since my father is constantly complaining about all the subscriptions and they are both retired, but I dont want them to feel completely miserable trying to navigate whatever I go with and have to constantly call me anytime they want to watch something.
I've stopped caring about them when they limited L2 and L3 keys to 720p shit tier avc.
Before that you could request hevc 1080p and above on L2 keys.
So why pay for something that I can't easily download and decrypt from?
Just pay so I can stream it? That's so fricking dumb.

What's Sonarr, Radarr and Prowlarr?
Radarr and Sonarr are both media downloaders and automation tools.

You add your desired movie into Radarr, and when it's available in the desired quality, it automatically pulls the torrent via Pawlarr by searching hundreds of indexers simultaneously, downloads it using your torrent client. When the torrent is complete, it'll move it to your preferred directory and rename it appropriately. You can then use Jellyfin or Plex to stream to any device for the full Netflix experience, or just plug your laptop to your TV.
Basically this is an automated way to bulk download media on demand. You can create lists on TMDB/IMDB and any movies/series added will be synchronised with Radarr/Sonarr.
So you can add a movie while at work and it'll be downloaded when you get home.
>Why not just go on a torrent site and download the torrent directly.
Because torrent sites have been moving to APIs. Many no longer have UIs. This makes it harder to take these services down. So tools like Radarr and Sonarr are used to query these APIs for the desired torrent. You can search thousands of indexers simultaneously within a matter of seconds. The most obscure contents can be found easily.

I forgot to note that if you want a media streaming app, like suggested in that illustration, I'd recommend Jellyfin because it's entirely free and open source.
Plex has become bloatware with a lot of unnecessary shit. They're also pushing their own streaming content on users and some minor features, like streaming to mobile devices, are hidden behind a paywall subscription.

It's OK. Not great or anything. Just OK. I used to get a lot of missed/wrong titles, but once you have radarr/sonarr feeding it metadata, it rarely goes wrong.
I mostly use it just because A) it has a Kodi add-on, and B) Kodi's the only thing I know of (and I admit that I may be woefully ignorant on the issue) that installs to a raspberry pi straight away as a stand-alone OS via i.e., openelec or libreelec.
Yeah, I could frick around with raspbian, and install kodi, and spend six days moving back and forth between my pc and my tv trying to get it to work with my remote, but frick all that.

Because if I torrent something I'm eventually going to get a warning,; 2 or 3 warnings and I have to personally call up the ISP and have them restore my internet. It's too annoying.
Who the frick is your ISP? I got two warnings ever and then not a peep from those gays since. Never use a VPN and torrent constantly.
Lmao let me guess their little warnings they send that they literally can and will do nothing about make you shit your wittle tighty whities
You only get warnings if you grab shit from the front page of tpb, not even shit like yify will raise a flag
>tpb, not even shit like yify will raise a flag
explain?
They have to manually identify and choose to send warnings so they do it to people who download blatant shit
They usually seem to only do it if you download something that is not available for purchase yet, as it is perfectly legal to get a digital copy of anything you own already
I've gotten warnings from all sorts of trackers for all sorts of shit even downloading old ass tv shows from rutracker, piratebay, and rarbg.
not everyone lives in a third world country, sis
It's good to have alternatives
I've been too lazy to switch to jellyfin since Plex just works for me. I tried emby a long time ago and I forget why exactly but I immediately hated it. Maybe they were asking to pay for something basic--regardless, I never felt an urge to revisit
>Stremio with the Torrentio add-on
QRD?
What content populates the Stremio interface? Is it shit you download or other stuff?
I'm old, this is just a bunch of gibberish to me
>download the accurate media bit by bit
>"stream" it from a device that uses resources to re-encode it for the other device in another room
what's the logic of this process? just install VLC on your tv and play the media from a portable harddrive the original bit-by-bit rip
do you need a VPN when using the torrent APIs? will your ISP cut your internet if you download from blacklisted IPs?
you're suggesting i download like a terabyte of data a month instead of streaming stuff?
you forgot bazarr to get that sweet sweet subtitle action as soon as the download is done
>going through this much moronation when copyright infringement letters mean nothing and the pirate bay is still going strong

They want everyone off the ad free plans. So they'll keep hiking the price until everyone is on ad supported. The ad free era is over for everyone everywhere.....unless you sail the high seas.
this
way easier to adjust ad rates for business clients than it is to sell customer price hikes
YARRRRR
Never left the seas as a matter of fact I don't understand what people means when they talk about password sharing
They basically want to be tubi/pluto/freevee who are free without accounts but have ads and are the only ones actually doing good money wise.
murder ad execs, behead marketing directors
So literally back to essentially cable?
>Hurrdurr it's basically cable
Not at all. For one thing you can get every streaming service and it would still be cheaper than cable. For another you have complete control over what you pay for without any long term contracts, moron. Why is it that the one time the market is geared towards consumers people are so desperate to reject it and return to the status quo? Is thinking for yourself too hard for you that you need an iPad babby to explain how streaming services work?
No its just on-demand with ads.
ahoy, matey
>unless you sail the high seas.
never left them me hearty
>password sharing was not enough
but of course.
Steaming never been profitable. Amount of money for new content. Paying for old content. Simple subscriptions can’t pay for all that. Why Amazon going all adds.
I never paid to begin with
Imagine being such a cuck
tfw you haven't paid for media in 6+ years
>mfw I never paid for media
I buy blurays for things I really like. I will never pay for streaming though.
tfw you haven't paid for media in 30 years.
>6+ years
my homie i haven't paid for media since 2003
>They are losing subscribers
So ...
>They raise prices?
What? Why? How? What's the logic?
Investors need to see the line go up.
>What? Why? How? What's the logic?
This is also a result of the writers strike.
> >They raise prices?
>What? Why? How? What's the logic?
Actually fairly normal practice. You fleece the paypigs you’ve suckered in because inertia means many of them are unlikely to want to change. They get a notification of rate increases that they grumble about but still keep paying each month.
This is why cable worked. It’s how lots of subscriptions function. Newspapers, music, software - the hard part is getting the sucker to sign up first time. Hence the incentives like “first month free” or -20% for first year sub, etc.
Whew, just checked and piracy is still free. What a relief.
not for long, technology is evolving, the internet is evolving, it'll be less and less possible to be anonymous online and there'll be more and more way to control what you're doing, I can easily imagine AI to check if your videos are pirated
never did, never will.
Keep paying piggies.
Why can't AI ever get fingers right?
Does anyone else feel like Netflix has just gotten way less relevant over the past 3~ years? The goofy-ass One Piece adaptation is the only thing anyone has even talked about from Netflix in what feels like years.
People talk about stupid shit happening from Disney and WBD all the time but these days Netflix feels like it's just there.
it's over. I welcome their demise.
no, you stupid fricking prostitute
stop shilling your articles here
The amount of morons shilling their articles/videos/whatever on Cinemaphile in the past year or so is legitimately obnoxious.
Well good thing I don’t have shitflicks
iv had netflix since 2004, used to rent a ton of dvds, copy them, send back, and repeat. had three 300 dvd binders filled with copied discs, i even used dual layer discs for long movies.
unfortunately they all rotted now, cant play a single one.
i cancelled Netflix over 2 years ago, i almost never watched it anyway, but it was like $15 and i didnt care.
ive also been a member of ptp and btn the entire time, netflix was just more convenient to watch something than having to download it and seed it for a minimum.
They started giving warnings about account sharing and I finally decided to just cancel it. All their new content is gay anyway
>normie-tax increases
>paying money to watch things
hahahahahahahaha
Not really. Streaming services seem to have forgotten that the only reason they are even a thing is because they were slightly more convenient than piracy but that can easily change if they put adds or rise prices.
Bidenflation
I'll make sure to increase my mockery of anons making threads about netflix slop.
Gotta make up for all of those lost subscribers. Milk the last of the paypigs for every last penny. Cut costs by not making new content anyone wants to see.
Why are millennials the only generation that pirate? My zoomer nephew doesn't know how and my Gen X relative loves his surround sound basement media center with 10 fully paid streaming services he never uses yet ALL my millennial friends pirate
Literally the only generation that knows how to use computers. Millennials grew up fixing janky early tech and learned everything about how it all works. Boomers are afraid of technology. Zoomers grew up using touch screens and dumbed down smartphone apps, they don't even understand keyboards or the basics of tech.
>Boomers are afraid of technology
Somehow, this now seems less moronic than 20 years ago...
The Digital Age is a paradigm shift similar in scope and scale to the Industrial Age, being at the very front of it has it perks but also curses.
Where did this "zoomers don't know how to use technology" meme come from? We have literally spent our entire lives on the internet and you shit your pants if you see a command line. You are dumb.
>We have literally spent our entire lives on the internet
and because of that, you probably don't know any of the tech knowledge to connect to the internet beyond asking for the wifi password, as devices constantly do everything for you now
I can guarantee that I know more about computers and technology than you do. You are just an out of touch homosexual who is seething that previous generations mocked you, and now you're trying to get out from the bottom of the totem pole. No better than the boomers
Holy fricking owned.
lol, youve never even opened a computer homosexual. go play with your phone somewhere else
I built the computer that I'm using right now to call you a homosexual, homosexual. You don't even know how to download a youtube video without using a website, if you even know how to do that.
>Millennials grew up when you couldn't even get on the net without tech knowledge and nothing worked right unless you spent hours on obscure bulletin boards crawling for solutions
Maybe a few nerdy ones did, but most millennials did not care to learn such things and did not use the internet for much until phones came around. That's why the popularity of smart phones ruined the Internet
Never heard of this so I guess you're right
>I built the computer that I'm using right now
ordering parts and having geek squad build something for you doesnt count zoom zoom.
Not what I did, I assembled my own parts list from scratch after doing research, ordered all the parts from their respective manufacturers over the course of a few weeks, then assembled it all myself with videos on YouTube
More than what you've done homosexual. Can you tell me about your extensive knowledge of computers? Using inspect element is not a skill
>Not what I did, I assembled my own parts list from scratch after doing research, ordered all the parts from their respective manufacturers over the course of a few weeks, then assembled it all myself with videos on YouTube
is this impressive to zoomers? i did this when i was 14, that was 17 years ago
well I sure as shit never watched a how to to build a computer homosexual. What you did was the equivilant of following lego instructions and calling yourself master builder
So you didn't do anything then? I asked you to tell me about some of your technical background and you have absolutely nothing to say
Never said it was impressive, you said that I had Geeksquad make my computer for me and I was telling you that you were wrong. This is how human conversation works
this is the first time i've posted. if you were such a buttmad zoomer you'd know that
Please learn to use English, shitskin. You will never, ever, ever be White
>holy heckin science is that a typo
stay mad zoomer
>Posted 70 seconds after post above admits to being ESL
lol
>technical background
Because explaining how I grew up building computers and programming is more time than I feel like spending on you zoom zoom.
Making a website with HTML is not "programming"
>I watched a video on how to build a computer!!!1
lol kys
zoomers can't even conceive a time where you couldn't type a problem into a search engine and find a step by step guide or video how to do shit
i remember playing point and click adventure games and having to brute force some of the ridiculous nonsensical solutions because there was no such thing as looking up a walkthrough
i remember having to phone a helpline to progress in broken sword
kek
men and my mom played gabriel knight: the beast within and it took days for one of us to figure out some of the solutions, especially the tape recorder part and the ending where you have to click on the boss as it's in front of the fire
As a zoomer I spit on you because youre probably the type to look up a walkthrough after every inconvenience despite living in an era without them. Basically youre moronic got nothing out of that time and are jealous that the morons of this era can get by easier than you did.
man this zoomy is so buttblasted he has devolved into word salad
>lalala I can't hear you!
Truth hurts doesn't it, moron.
seething
try using punctuation next time you sperg out moron. Its helps others understand your screeching better
>try using reddit marks next time
>look at me im such a midwit
Kek
>try using reddit marks next time
lol this is some top tier seethe
>zoomers think using a period is reddit
makes sense coming from a generation known for their illiteracy
>2 responses to a single anon getting BTFO
Yeah I'm the one seething
btfo
>I built the computer that I'm using right now
Probably in the same way that some suburban mom takes 4 hours to "build" something she bought from IKEA
>download a youtube video without using a website
wait how else do you do it
Someone please answer this, every result on google just points to using a website to downloading youtube videos or using an extension
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8921496/shell-script-to-download-youtube-files-from-playlist
I'll check this out at greater detail later, but why might I wanna do this compared to just dropping a link into a website and downloading it?
no reason, that anon is just being pedantic
I figured as much, I might try to learn something new to keep my brain fresh but it looks a hell of a lot easier to just drop a link and download it on a site, whole process takes me less than a minute
it's much easier to have an extension that gives you the option of downloading embedded videos directly from a page than going to an external site
much faster, no limits in how much you can download, you can customize the formats you're downloading in, you can download from far more websites, you can type up a whole txt doc with a bunch of links to videos you want to download and have the program download them all one by one, etc. its much more useful in every way
learn technology
yt-download is slow and shitty. Use yt-dlp instead
Zoomers don't know anything besides clicking on app buttons. They have zero deep understanding of the underlying tech. They grew up in the easy days of the dumbed down internet. Millennials grew up when you couldn't even get on the net without tech knowledge and nothing worked right unless you spent hours on obscure bulletin boards crawling for solutions.
they will never know the joys of telnet. I still have my little black book of modem commands
Usenet, telnet, bbs, AIM, irc, the dialup internet sound and speeds, the zoomers just don't know.
>you shit your pants if you see a command line
>zoomgroids think windows cmd is impressive
holy kek
I've never understood why Cinemaphile seethes so hard about zoomers all the time
When you havent accomplished what you want in life and are an all around miserable frick you tend you look down upon the youth who have everything going for them.
>zoomers
>everything going for them
lmfao we are completely fricked in every way imaginable
The dregs of the generation yeah, but in a sense that's true for every gen.
No, I mean economically we are completely fricked in every way, and it's nigh impossible to own a home or find a good wife to start a family with anymore. Zoomers are objectively fricked in every way
That makes no sense.
If you get a job that pays above the median, preferably top 75% and above which won't require much effort, you'll be able to pay down the house in less than a decade, maybe even 5 years.
The problem might be the lack of employable skills and ambition in the zoomers.
I can't tell if this is bait or if you're actually this fricking stupid
>t. marvel slooping, Republican voting, cognitively impaired shithead
>If you get a job that pays above the median, preferably top 75% and above which won't require much effort, you'll be able to pay down the house in less than a decade, maybe even 5 years.
you vastly underestimate what slightly above average income can afford you in 2023+ dude. You aren't paying your house down in 5 years lmao.
I think he's baiting
Yes you do, not in the middle of expensive cities you won't.
Check the data and use logic.
>objectively verifiable facts about shrinking consumer power
Nah bro just bootstrappy thhose bootstraps harder have you tried pulling more on the bootstraps bro just work harder lmao
>boomers managed to remake society to create entire new systems of entitlements and welfare that didn’t exist to ease their lives compared to earlier generations
Nah bro you can’t just want more stuff man that’s unfair to Mr Moneybags, he needs that money it will trickle down just work harder bro. The problem is kids these days just don’t wanna work! You can’t just ask the government for stuff!
>the older generation did literally this an got more than you ever will out of this lifetime
That's quite literally a millennials problem.
I’d be amazed if even 5% of boomers had ever entered a cmd prompt
Napster. They were the first kids to be burning music CDs in elementary school.
I wouldn't pay for Netflix even at it's original price unless some new flavor of the month dropped, but I get it free with my phone plan. I pay for Max and Prime while leeching off my parents Hulu+Disney bundle and my friends Peawiener. I also see films that interest me in theatres whenever I can. The rest I steal and add to my plex.
imagine paying for goyslop
What do you watch?
free goyslop
Whatever I want to. And all for free. I only pay for my internet connection, which is already expensive.
Why watch it at all if you think it's just goyslop?
thread theme
What do we use to download shit after rargb died? Still 1337x? Haven't downloaded anything in a while and last time i looked it was kinda shit.
torrentgalaxy
thepiratebay.org
I'm cancelling any streaming service going forward that is imposing any price hikes (my family's just gonna have to suck it up). Discovery+ was the first earlier today when they raised the price $2/mo. for no reason. I had it with these homosexuals.
Why do you pay for any of them at all?
Uh because stealing is against the law in this country.
BLM steals all the time, if they don’t follow the law then why would you?
>If someone else is a criminal why wouldn't you wanna be one
Are you ok?
Convenience, plus my family uses them. I also have nearly 150TB of storage with thousands and thousands of hours of stuff on it, so I personally don't rely solely on streaming like they do (comes in handy at work though).
No you're not.
Netflix costs money???
This is the direct result of the strike; the moment writers get higher pay, the companies need to increase subscription fees in order to offset the additional losses.
i dont have a tv
tv rots the mind
?si=DvAzmOX-f8DIdASx
I'd respect you pirategays more if you just told the truth and said you're broke instead of pretending you have some intellectual high ground for typing in "watch movie free" on Google.
I just like stealing
Even that is more respectable.
I'm not broke or rich, I just don't like giving money to people who want me dead because of my genetic background
If you truly believe that then why watch at all?
Because it's fun sometimes to turn my brain off and watch goyslop
It's fun to turn your brain off and watch something made by people who want you dead? Are you sure your brain even has an on switch?
Why do you care?
Because you responded in the first place and your logic doesn't make any sense.
I'm a loser NEET but I've pirated online so long (since napster and shit but even before that via copying onto tapes back in the day) that even if I had money I would probably still do it to some degree just out of sheer fricking habit at this point.
If you pay for any streaming service, you do not belong on this website.
I pay for literally every streaming service and go to the movies once a week and I'm not leaving ever.
no you don't
Not all of them but most. Netflix, Hulu with live tv, Max, Disney Plus, Peawiener, Prime Video, Paramount, and recently got the AMC+ addon but just for spooky season. Also I go to the theaters at least 3 times a month.
I haven't paid for movies since Netflix had DVDs.
I have already gave up on Netflix like two years ago, I usually like supporting services I like like a good consumer but Netflix is beyond saving.
>Want to watch anime, go to aniwatch.to
>Want to watch film/tv, turn on my vpn and torrent using qbittorrent and thepiratebay
Literally that easy
>Want to watch film, turn on the TV
>Wan to watch anime, go see a therapist 5 times a month
I love not being broke
I have basically all the streaming services through my bf's parents. I don't pay for them at all. If they don't have something I want or do something gay like remove episodes or use the wrong aspect ratio I just pirate whatever I want.
will the actors and writers of hollywood join the average consumers as they protest the rising subscription fees
I've never payed for it and I never will. Anyone who pays to watch tv is a literal NPC, there's no two ways about it.
>payed
English is my second language. I notice you're resorting to ad hominem attacks instead of addressing my initial point though.
>English is my second language
Yes, I know. And now you know that "payed" is incorrect.
>Anyone who doesn't break the law is an NPC
Based moron
Yeah but the government that makes these laws wants me dead so who cares?
>The government wants me dead so I'll steal this goyslop I hate, that'll show them!
I'm begining to realize who the actual NPC is
I bet you took the covid vax.
I bet you think you're a special snowflake for doing what overly religious housewives were already doing for decades
Who says I'm special? I'm saying you're an NPC for taking the vax. Also I know for a fact you're a woman or a homosexual. Hows my skills in deduction?
>Everyone who took the vax is an NPC and I'm the protagonist for refusing it like people have already been doing with vaccines before I was born
>Huh who says I'm special?
Id say your deduction skills are deeply flawed but mainly due to your near insane lack of self awareness.
Don't get mad. I'm not special. I would never claim to be. Unfortunately for you, it means by default you're a moron.
Oh youre certainly special, anon. I think that's well established.
Stop being such a homosexual
Keep crying dumbass, your logic makes no sense. Don't get mad at me for calling it out.
Calling out what? Not paying to watch dogshit television? Seethe harder corporate shill. I will NEVER pay Hollywood a single penny ever again, unless it is for a James Cameron film, and there is NOTHING you can do about it. Cope and sneed
>I won't pay to watch this dogshit goyslop
Again, so why watch it in the first place?
I don't. Name me one good show on Netflix that was worth paying for. They butcher all their remakes and anything worth watching isn't even on it.
>I don't
So if you don't watch TV then why are you here?
This thread is about Netflix and it's increasing prices. I don't pay for that dog shite. But I will watch whatever I want when I want. In fact I never come on Cinemaphile but fancied watching a horror movie tonight so thought I'd see if there were any threads recommending something new. Also give me one show on Netflix you rate highly so we can conclude you're an NPC.
You expanded it to Hollywood as a whole, implying you think it's all dogshit. What do you watch aside from horror slop you need spoonfed to you by anons on Cinemaphile?
I'm not that guy. But he wasn't wrong. I haven't seen a good film or tv show for god knows how long. You keep ignoring my question. Tell me what you like to watch on Netflix so I can laugh and call you a moron.
Sorry I didn't realize the seethe I cause transcended posters. I get Netflix for free so I barely watch it outside of whatever flavor of the month is trending so I can discus with my coworkers. RN I'm trying to see what the hype was all about for BCS.
What I was questioning the other anon about is the same question I'll ask you. Why continue watching if you hate it all?
I don't hate it all but I do think the majority of the new stuff is shit. It's the same reason I come to Cinemaphile, I hope to find something interesting to keep me entertained for a short time. Also I've never seen what you said you watch so unfortunately I won't call you a moron and laugh.
Well it may come to a shock to you that the main draw of these streaming sites aren't even the new shit they make, but access to older stuff. Most people just watch the same 4 or 5 shows/films on repeat. And that's being generous.
To shitpost, homosexual Black person.
You can do that anywhere, why here specifically?
I do it elsewhere as well. Why not here, too?
Do you do it literally everywhere? What makes this place stand out? If you hate all the stuff on TV is it just pure seethe that fuels you? I'm genuinely curious because it seems like there's more posters than ever on this board who don't watch or even like tv/film so I'm confused what keeps them coming back.
Cinemaphile doesn't stand out, I do it in other boards -- Cinemaphile, Cinemaphile, Cinemaphile, /x/ etc.
Nothing fuels me, it's more of a habit. I have 40 minutes of free time in the afternoon, generally, with little else to do. I don't spend time on my phone, either.
>hate all the stuff on Cinemaphile
No, I haven't watched a film or tv series since 2008, so there's no love/hate thing. Much of what's discussed here is also very US-centric, which I don't care about, but it's still fun to get a rise out of people, even though I usually have little idea of the context or background.
Not everyone shitting up the boards here has the same motivation, though.
>I have 40 minutes of free time in the afternoon,
Man, I have 16 hours of free time a day and that never feels like enough.
I haven't watched western TV in a decade and I haven't watched a western film in 8 years. Still watch plenty of real TV though, maybe 2-3 hours a day?
ok u first
No deal
>swriters win the strike and now get more money from streaming
>streaming services up prices to compensate
who could've seen this coming???
Already canceled almost a year ago. I'm the reason for the price increase.
Okay so im looking at doing a media server that I can share with my boomer parents. Thing is they are fricking boomers who love their UIs, from what I have seen online Plex is the way to go. Is this shit too hard to set up and maintain? I want to help them save money since my father is constantly complaining about all the subscriptions and they are both retired, but I dont want them to feel completely miserable trying to navigate whatever I go with and have to constantly call me anytime they want to watch something.
It's not hard to set up or maintain but boomers struggle to work apps designed for moronic children so good luck.
i only have a couple things on there i want to watch so i'm hoping to just get a free trial to check those out.
So did these homosexuals ever go through with the account sharing cost?
I've stopped caring about them when they limited L2 and L3 keys to 720p shit tier avc.
Before that you could request hevc 1080p and above on L2 keys.
So why pay for something that I can't easily download and decrypt from?
Just pay so I can stream it? That's so fricking dumb.
Zoomie is losing it itt right now
BUT THINK OF LE WRITERS!!!!
You might want to use your brain and start arguing instead of sperging.
I dont pay for it now. I just started pirating more.
This is like a decade old now?
lol
Ads are why I cut the cord in the first place now they want to bring that back?
