Netflix will implement the change in Canada and the U.K. in the second quarter of the year before “taking it from there,” the letter said.
The company did not specify when (or whether) the change would impact U.S. subscribers.
Yeah that’s an option but it’s not going to be a practical solution for everyone. Most people on Lemmy are more tech savvy than average so they’ll be fine but there are plenty of people who lack the knowledge and skill. And that sucks because people have shown repeatedly that they are more than willing to pay a reasonable rate for the content they want. But these greedy fucks decided they all needed their own service. So now content is fractured across a dozen different apps that are only getting more expensive and ad riddled.
It just plain sucks that your options are either piracy or being constantly fucked over to benefit shareholders.
At some point, when prices get too high, people will seek out someone who can help them pirate. Like I’ve already installed Kodi and Stremio with an Alldebrid account on a TV or Android box for many of my friends
It’s already happening where I live.
Almost 70% of my friends subscribed with IPTV pirated content for like $20 a year.
You basically pay someone to host pirated content for you and stream it using IPTV apps.
They’ll figure out a way. Back in my youth, the kids at school who got a CD burner first were making bank. In the 80s it was sketchy guys at flea markets with boxes of tapes. Need drives innovation.
Just download streamio and add the torrentio add-on and you’re done.
Its the whole pay for VPN that stops people, or at least that’s what I’ve seen.
You don’t need a vpn, its like streaming from a site, not downloading.
I haven’t personally used it but from what I can find: if you’re using torrents with Stremio (e.g. the ones found with torrentio) you are totally uploading parts of what you’re watching to others.
Doesn’t the name Torrentio imply that its getting it from a Torrent? Or am I misunderstanding?
I’m sorry you’re getting downvoted by people who don’t know how alldebrid, realdebrid, and premiumize work and refuse to look it up.
Our grandmothers may not know how but most people have enough knowledge to find the right piracy websites, download pirated content and install a vpn
