YIPPEE
*unzips HDMI cable*
streaming is now officially worse than cable. Imagine paying for HBO and it still has ads.
Chud faggots got what they voted for, now they can pay double to cry about the shitty IPs they worship getting rebooted.
>>219303299Actually is not that bad, consider the fact that the library of content of all those services is now bigger than before, but nobody ever mentions that
>>219303602
I'll be fine watching all the crap nobody would ever want to watch anymore on any number of free platforms/youtube.This doesn't effect me at all.What's that? Time for another episode of 'Woops'? from the very early days of Fox? Coming right up, for free, mind you.
>all of these prices are the ad versionsHAHAHHAHA
I'm good bro
I still get blacked on blondes for the same price as 2016 because I'm grandfathered in as a lifetime loyalty member lol
>>219303694No one with a functional brain has any subscriptions. Not only is piracy better also not watching anything is a vast improvement. Why are you paying for 20-40yo shows?
>>219303299How long until these start requiring a 12 month contract like cable?
$0
>>219303299theres literally nothing wrong with what the streaming companies are doing. they are doing the exact same thing that all tech companies do with their products, jacking up the price every year. netflix, amazon, apple, yeah theyre all part of the "big tech" companies for a reason, and we all know that most of you posting on here work as software engineers in tech, many for these same exact companies doing these practices, and you have no problem with them doing it and love bragging about how much money you make and that you work from home. so shut the fuck up. i love streaming companies and big tech.
You bunch of spoiled nibbas have no idea how much more expensive watching movies used to be.
>>219306699>nibbas
>>219303713My 22TB hard drive has more content then all of the streaming services combined. It was a one time cost of $200 and streams free to all my devices using am old computer I would have otherwise thrown in the trash. That's less than the cost of one year of netflix.
>>219306699>rent film>duplicate onto my own VHS/DVD>return itI got phyical copies of films for $2. Still a better deal than any streaming service.
>>219306776>22tb>200 dollarsI'm calling bullshit
>>219303299lots of these services overlap libraries
>>219306838Sure thing bud.
>>219303299Iptv chads rise up
>Go to google>[movie name] + 123movies>Watch movie
>>219303299>$0
>>219306838>>219306959>VHS dupicatorsThis is revisionist retardation. Anyone could hook two VCRs together and start pirating. Tapes were an added cost on top of all the machinery and rentals, thoughbeit.
>>219303299I used to subscribe to BroadwayHD for a few months back when they first launched for (I think) $7.99/mo and in the emails they still send me, the monthly price is now $24.99/mo. Their selection is still extremely small, so I don't see why they justified the price increasing that much. Too niche?
>>219303299>Tubi>Pluto>Roku channel>Mirrored torrents of almost every show imaginable Yup, time to watch kino
i just use my mommy's account to stream free of charge
>>219304187>click on something because it's poster intrigues me while browsing>content unavailable
>>219303299Resist & Unsubscribe
Between youtube and yflix.to there is no need to pay for any of this shit.
netflix should pay me to watch
>>219303299I'm not even pirating their slop. I have Tubi and youtube, everything a man needs.
>>219306699Here in Australia I remember I could rent any DVD for $1 on Tuesdays until circa 2010 when I stopped renting. I used to have hardly any internet data at my parents since they didn't use the internet at all, but I'd go nearly every week to rent 5 or 10 DVDs just so I could rip them on my PC at home. I remember renting 10 new release DVDs one time and the guy behind the counter was completely bamboozled how I could possibly watch 10 movies overnight. I remember it taking about 30 minutes to rip a movie. Last time I rented a DVD was circa 2018 for an obscure Australian movie that wasn't even available to download as a torrent years after it released.
>>219303299Higher.
>>219303299Dont forget showtime starz and apple+
how can there be people who actually work for these tech companies and are proud of it?
>>219313915>the people who work for these companies:
>>219303299capitalism at work. line must go up eternally! also i had no idea Hulu was around that long
>>219303299Your stremio, bro?
>>219304187BASED TUBI CHAD
>>219303713I can't tell since they all have menus that hinder my ability to see everything. Endless lists of sub categories where I see the same few movies in all of them.
>$20, $40, $200, how about i'm paying none of 'em
There's a better way out there
>>219303299none of this bullshit is worth watching even for free
>>219303299what do you expect? pretty much every household owns streaming services, it's practically impossible to get new clients, the only way to make more money is to ask the current clients for more money. the end stage capitalism is here.
>>219310006Thanks Yify
>>219303299you know what a revolutionary idea would be? if there was a package deal that grouped up all these channels into one easily manageable service!
>>219303299>pay 3$ a month for Torbox>can also share account with others>get any movie/tv show in existenceYea yea, I'm still paying, but 3$ is a measly amount for the convenience instead of hooking up HDMI cables and downloading torrents manually
>>219314428>Endless lists of sub categories where I see the same few movies in all of them.My ex gf had amazon prime and seeing the same movie 20 times pissed me off the most.
>>219315110>instead of hooking up HDMI cablesDo you still use component cables or do you watch them on a tiny screen?
>>219315299wut?it's like netflix but pirated, it's a cloud downloader, which means all the content gets downloaded to their servers and then you stream it from their servers, protecting you and your ip.install stremio and get the torbox addon on your pc, login, set it up, then download stremio to your tv, login, and hit the sync button which puts the addon and your credentials onto your tvthen any movie/show you look at will see torbox as a source for streaming
>>219303299>piracy>$0.00 in 1990>$0.00 in 2026Inflation proof.
>>219315396could i link the vids externally say to like cytube?
>>219303602Nothing dries my pussy faster. What, you can't afford Netflix? Are you this poor?
>>219315396So you stream them to your apple watch or do you have an HDMI cord connected to your monitor/tv?
>>219315481I am not familiar with that software
kanopy is a streaming service that is free for people with public library accounts in america. sometimes they have good movies or programs to watch. public libraries in america will often have dvds and games that are free to borrow for weeks. use these resources if you are desperate.
>>219315536it's just a site you can embed vids on and chat with friendsso like can i generate a link to the movie file that i could send to other people?
>>219315572I'm not sure, but you can share your account without any restrictions if you want to share with others
>>219315572just gotta say cytube is fun, thanks for the suggestion
I have vlc media player on my tv so once I’ve downloaded my illegal stolen movies I “pop” them onto a usb stick and put that in the telly. I am a genius.
>>219315409pirates are tranny communists who are stealing from the job creators
>>2193157974channel loves trannies
>>219304518This, I have every major sitcom in 1080p and I never paid a cent for them.
>>219306699this sort of response to the OP problem is an exclusively american product. no yuropoors or any other stinkin part of earth is lead-brained enough to ever say anything like this, god bless the cia for putting nationalism in the water
>>219303299YARR HARR!
this one is still free desu
>>219306699But the point is that you could watch anything you wanted without having to subscribe to some shitty streaming service. Look at the prices in OP, so if I want to watch one movie, even two or three movies on Netflix, I am already paying more to do that than if I had rented those movies back in the day. The only way to get value from streaming services is to watch every goddamn bit of shit they have on their platform.Regardless, piracy is better and easier than ever, so I'm not complaining. Let the goy pay a second rent so that I can continue to get it all for free.
I only use Tubi or free streaming sites. Fuck paying and torrents
>>219321155I don't get what some of you people have against torrenting.
>>219306699Then:>go to rent a movie>entire store filled with thousands of movies from dozens of genres>something I want isn't in? rent something else, spoiled for choice>maybe grab a few more cheap, older movies to watch on a weekly rental or in a bundle deal>head to the store next to the rental place to buy some snacks & drinks>enjoy some kinoNow:>turn on streaming service>movie you want to watch isn't there>practically no good movies are, for that matter>it's just gay streaming shows and "originals" as far as the eye can see>finally find something half decent after half an hour of scrolling>have to sit through a disclaimer because a character says a mean word in it>movie has ads popping up halfway through it>turn it off and go jerk off instead
>>219315729Don't be mean
>>219303299My 60TB seed box runs me around $35 a month in electricity billsNothing is really free
>>219303299I replaced all of these with MLB.tv
>>219321426It's free if you don't become a hobbyist autist about it. Thank you for your service though.
>>219314930That’s just the subscriber business model. The introductory rate is always a solid loss and the hope is either people forget and stop using it while still paying or to just slowly jack up prices.
>>219315218Why’d she make you watch the same movie 20 times?
>>219304187based and poliziotteschi-pilled
>>219303299>dude, streaming is like the cable killer and all that! cheap, no ads, everything in one place, you don't have to pay for channels you don't want...>programming gets broken up across multiple different services>content comes and goes >services are increasingly expensive >services have ads>services start offering bundles >cable companies themselves become brokers of streaming services>probably still have to pay the cable company if you want decent internetIt's funny that people thought they could win and have something that was actually better.
>>219321115>only watching 2-3 movies a monthwhat the heck
>>219306699>When adjusted for inflationStopped reading there. Inflation is theft.
>>219321195The site is stuffed with paid shills. piracy bad is one of their talking points. also fear mongering for piracy.
>>219321545lmao
>>219306776ick
>load up tubi>have adblock running>it works
>>219321539>implying shitflix has enough good movies to watch more than 2-3 movies a month anywayAnd 2-3 movies a month is more than enough if we are talking new releases. If you wanted to rent or buy older stuff there were tons of bargain bin offers. So you actually get worse value today because most new releases are still digital rental and don't go on the subscription platforms for a few months, meanwhile to watch older stuff there's no bargain bin, you have to sub to these fucking platforms and hope they have something good.
>>219304187Based
>>219321530Netflix found a sweet spot between tech and law where it was still illegal for studios to own “theaters,” which streaming platforms could technically be construed as. So they got “streaming” rights for everything cheap. Most of the “cord cutters” were going from broadcast to piracy Though.
>>219303633Try being Bonglish and using NowTVSeparate subscriptions for>TV Shows>TV Shows + HBO shows>Movies >Sports>Reality TV Then you get to choose>Boost (ad free, 1080p)>Ultra Boost (ad free, 4k, atmos)It’s fucking madness
I cancelled my Netflix and cable.
>>219321687>>219321539>>219321115>>219306699New releases don't go directly to streaming services anyway, so it's still expensive to watch new releases if you don't pirate, because you have to digitally rent instead of physically rent, that's the only difference. Streaming subscriptions are mostly there to give you access to A: a massive back catalog of old shit and B: whatever original bs they are pumping out.Being able to rent a new release and then get your filler from cheaper, older rentals or buying bargain bin could definitely be cheaper. And lets be realistic, most people don't just have one streaming service, so if you consider that people generally sub to at least two, and then that if you wanted to watch new shit you'd have to digitally rent anyway, it's definitely not true that watching movies used to be more expensive.
Netflix flat out admits they dumb down their plots and dialogue because they know you aren’t paying attention. Characters will recap the story every episode since Netflix knows your eyes are on your phone, occasionally darting upward when there’s a musical sting or explosion. And all the writers are spoiled nepo hires who have no idea how people talk outside of 21st century LA.
I left my firestick with iptv on it at my recent exes that has about 9 months left. ;_;
>>219307712based
>>219303299There’s nothing to watch on these streaming platforms.
>>219303299>mfw Ghibli isn't on Disney but HBOHow did that even happen!?
I suppose if you switched service every month you would always have new things to watch and never pay too much.
>>219321794nowtv is strictly for sky sports, I can't imagine anyone getting it for any other reason
>>219304301Based. Question for you though why are the girls sometimes not blonde I never understood that

>>219306959>VHS duplicators lmao i have literally never heard this before2 VCRs or a VCR and a camera that took full size VHS. most households had some combination of those things
>>219303713Netflix's library peaked in size 14 years ago and has shrunk considerably since.>>219314824Was going to type this exact post.
oh no whatever will i do ?
>>219315507Skill issue, I used my PS3 to watch my Blazin' Saddles dvd, we were banging halfway through
>>219306699This is bullshit. It was like 5 bucks a week or 2 days for new releases.
fmhy dot net doesn't get mentioned enough on 4chinz
>>219306838for me it was>rent tape>dub tape>steam off and swap labels>return dub
>>219303299With the end of personal computing, it will make pirating way harder.
