That's why sports channels are much more expensive than everything else. It's harder to pirate live sports events. FKN corpos made it impossible for my parents to watch Wimbledon.

Finally got kicked off a Netflix account yesterday actually.
Man, one thing I wonder is how the stock keep going up, when users are leaving because of password sharing no longer possible.
Stock prices and the financial sector as a whole does not reflect reality.
Because most investors are MBAs and MBAs have fewer braincells than an amoeba
What was the reason?
Exactly! This is the real reason I started paying, it was convenient. But I'll pay only so much for convience, isn't it? Right now I've a TV with an Android stick, but I've already started finding ways to use pirated stuff there. And if I've to pirate too much... I'll built a fucking small underpowered "pc" that's just good for torrenting lol.
I set up an open vpn server on my asus router, and a dedicated open vpn client router down the street for my parents that their roku box connects to. Now Netflix only sees the account accessing from one household. I have fiber so I have the bandwidth to give for this setup. It's my personal fuck you to them for wanting to charge me an extra $8 a month for 2 screens. If I can't get a $8 discount for 1 screen then they can fuck right off.
You guys know you can stream torrents, right? It's been solo much more convenient to be a pirate than use Netflix for years.
Explain pls...
Several apps can stream. I prefer Stremio.
Debrid services (such as Real-Debrid) caches torrents on their servers, enabling you to stream them. You can do so directly from Real-Debrid's website, but there exists numerous apps that can search for torrents, check if they're cached on Real-Debrid's servers, and then load up the stream.
Easiest app to setup is probably Stremio with the Torrentio addon, which I use on my desktop. For my Android TV, I have Kodi running with the Fen addon (although there exists a bunch of different ones). Setting up Kodi is definitely more of a hassle, but easily doable if you're minimally tech-savvy.
