Time for the ship to sail

- I'm very close to get a global ratio on qbittorrent of 5, seeing number go up really motivates me to continue contributing
- Imagine if it was crowdfunded? It's like account sharing with extra steps.

The recent South Park movies aren't available in the Netherlands. I guess the exclusive streaming service is a pirate's life then.
- I live in the US, but there's a lot of media I'd like to watch that isn't available in the US. Piracy is literally my only option, because I'm not given legal ways to consume that content.
  
  A legal option is VPNs

My Jellyfin server has become quite useful as I’ve unsubscribed from various services.

Did anyone else get the email that said Max is reducing its adfree tier to 2 screens instead of 3 and no more 4k? I just got it yesterday.
Cancelled.

YA HAR FIDDLE-DEE-DEE!
BEING A PIRATE IS ALRIGHT TO BE!
DO WHAT YOU WANT 'CAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE!
YOU ARE A PIRATE!

Usenet is best net. Learn to use the arrs, Radarr, Sonarr, sabnzbd. Plex/jellyfin, one of many usenet providers like newsgroup ninja. Takes some time to set up, but fully automated once done.

I wanted to watch the original run of Fullmetal Alchemist again. It basically doesn't exist anymore.
Lots of people say Brotherhood is better. I get it. But it's just not the same to me
- I love both and whenever I'm in a FMA mood I watch them together. The first anime does a fantastic job with things like mood, atmosphere, lightning and music, and throws some interesting ideas and concepts into the the narrative.
  To anyone who enjoyed FMA but only watched Brotherhood, please do yourself a favor and watch the '03 anime.

All the big companies in their greed ignore the Cobra effect
- Now look see what you've done here, I'm down another Wikipedia rabbit hole!

I had been steadily pirating for a while but I kept my satellite package for sports. They recently upped the price by $10 which was enough to finally push me get one of those non sanctioned IPTV subscriptions. I am paying about a tenth of the cost now. I wish I had switched sooner!
- Do you need a VPN just to watch? I always use a VPN if I'm seeding torrents from my PC, but don't really want to connect my TV to a VPN.
  
  I don't but I am in Canada. I know pirating laws are bit different than in the states

In a better world, content would cost the same to all streaming services, all content would be available everywhere, and competition between services would be based on price and quality of service. You'd subscribe to one and get everything.
- It should be like music. You can sign up for basically any service (Spotify, YouTube Music, Apple Music, etc) and generally hear any song. It would be ridiculous if each record label or whatever had its own streaming service, so why are TV & movies different?
- You could say the same thing about video games
