- Dropout (I like the content, and it’s quite affordable)
- Prime Video (included with Prime, which I’d like to cancel soon)
and then if you count it as a streaming service:
- Plex (with lifetime plexpass membership, I’ve never streamed any of the included content, and only use it for streaming my own library)
Only the high seas
tips pirate hat
I would but it doesn’t have the ease of Netflix etc so for the kids and wife it doesn’t work
Streamio does. It even has profiles. Just get the torrentio add-on and you’ll be golden.
thats where jellyfin comes in. ive got ~35,000 episodes in my library. all the 'tv’s in the house are connected, and they can watch from school and crap on their phones.
I use a rotating list of pirate streaming sites
Just a single one, my own Plex server. I like to have all my stuff in one place and actually own it.
Nice, I have a PLEX server too! I rip my physical media and put it on there. I definitely put more money into that than streamers although I will probably take a break from collecting soon, just to enjoy what I already have.
I hate Plex because it requires my computer to stay on at all times for it to work and I use a laptop
That setup used to be fine because I used it exclusively on my laptop for a bit. I since moved my server to an RPi, and then more recently to a OptiPlex 3050 Micro Form Factor machine.
Long-term I probably need a NAS + dedicated and upgradable machine solution but it’ll be years before I start doing that
Yeah I’ve thought of buying a mini computer just to hang on the wall behind my tv and use as a server
I’d say it’s worth it for casual use! It’s mostly working for me for dedicated use as well. You can do a lot with a mini machine.
I suspect you’ll be happy with what I bought. It only costs $100 and is small enough to be tucked behind my trash can without incident.
I get Amazon Prime free, aside from that I have Disney plus and Netflix. Disney is heavily used by the kids, Netflix I use mostly
One. Streamio with the torrentio add-on.
Everything is on it.My wife subscribes to Hulu and Netflix. Her sister has Disney plus.
I don’t own any subscriptions for entertainment, except maybe Humble Bundle, which isn’t a streaming service. My subscriptions are more for software and tech.
That’s a good investment! I probably need to beef up my tech some, honestly.
Piggybacking can be fun, sometimes I watch Homicide: Life On The Street with my dad and one of my siblings on Peacock, and I’ll be piggybacking on that same sibling’s Netflix subscription for Arcane S02 after the 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lone Star fall finales.
None personally. I mainly stream. Occasionally I borrow a families Netflix if I feel like I need it.
That’s cool. My siblings who live in other states are a big factor in why I still have Hulu (I’d probably keep Disney+ regardless, for the Marvel content there) so I’m on the other end of the sharing equation.
Probably due to lifestyle. I get the impression your a TV hobbyist/enthusiast based on the amount of subscriptions you have. I mainly watch things only after they enter the mainstream to avoid wasting my time on things I won’t enjoy.
Oh I am! I’m about to get Max in a few weeks too, to watch The Penguin and Dune: Prophecy when I have time to do so. I love TV!
As a person who has a lot of Netflix stock but doesn’t own Netflix… Please subscribe to Netflix!
I’ll start first, I have one or three depending on how you count it: the Disney Trio Premium bundle, with Hulu (no ads), ESPN+ (no ads), and Disney+ (no ads). I don’t really need ESPN+ but I like to watch college football sometimes so it’s nice in a pinch. I’ve used Hulu since I was a teen because they reliably have content from TNT, Cartoon Network, USA Network, FX and FOX. Or at least they did when I got it at first. However, I don’t use it as much as I’ve started collecting physical and digital media, so some stuff might have gone away without me noticing.
