    I dont get how that blows your mind. Families typically dont have the time to jump through loops so they pretty much have to pay for some kind of streaming service. I use to sail the seas all the time but between work, family, and trying to find time to myself there’s no time.

      But they’re jumping through hoops having to pay a bunch of different companies subscription fees to use their apps that have no common interface so its literally nothing but hoops.

      All you have to do is ask c/piracy or any community really where to get some Plex or jellyfin access

        It blows my mind that you think the average streamer knows anything about pirating. It’s so much easier for the average person to download the app, put in your email, link a payment, and you’re in. Majority of streamers have never even heard of Plex or jellyfin, let alone participate in any pirating communities.

        People need to learn how, but I doubt most people with a full-time job would care to learn. It ain’t really jumping through hoops when it’s easy to subscribe to a streaming service.
