    After spending 10 years watching Netflix I’ve been driven back to piracy due to the amount of streaming options basically making it look like cable again. I don’t want to manage my subscriptions every month to make sure I’m paying for the ones that have the shows I want to watch.

    Cancelling shows, transferring shows from one to the other, moving shows from that basic plan you subscribe to into a higher tier which is even more money per month, etc.

    Now I pay $20 a year for an android box that streams pirated content from every streamer and movie releases. So much easier, I would pay $20+ a month for it if it were legal.

    the netflix thing was the most idiotic, obnoxious bullshit i’ve ever seen – really acting like using a website somewhere else was something THEY got to gatekeep and charge for. it’s not like they had to mail DVDs somewhere else, like it was a physical cost.
