Justwatch.com may be helpful to identify legal streaming options.

Your best bet is piracy.

S17 in 1080 is out there: 47Gbytes. ;)

In work we've been told we're starting to wind down for the year now so means no more launches are likely, ofcourse some could still happen as contracts are always getting discussed but most likely that's your lot for this year.

Now, now.

All these streamers aren't splintering off content onto multiple £8 a month services for people to do that.

Newsgroups ? I think he means torrents. ;)
There are smaller packs (720p) available as well (5GB).

I gave up Torrents years ago when I found it quicker and easier to just use an NZB file.

Yeah I know there are members here on private trackers but for those who are not Usenet is far far safer

do you use realdebrid or premiumize or totally free? these are good as you can force them to cache torrents for you and of course they improve scraper links

Not used anything like that I only used to grab an NZB file from a website and load it into Newsleecher but then I've only streamed from Kodi or CinemaHD for donkeys years and not had any need to download anything including software.

So you could say I am a retired downloader! :D

had this discussion with kodi devs in the past arguing Kodi does not down load but it does as do other scraper addons/apks. They all cache and the cache is downloaded and stored till played. Yes most only cache a few seconds and most also never save this to disc but some do :)

You can see the downloaded stored cache in the play bar as it fills beyond what is being played

Anything streamed downloads a cache, never stream dodgey stuff unless you're using a good quality no logs vpn.
I use iptv that's all i'm saying lol.

Safer than what ? Public torrents are perfectly safe if you do it right. :angel:

the very fact you have to add a caveat proves my statement

yes I know that is why I said what I did to snoopz. Dunno why you had to say the same thing again hahaha

You are highly unlikely to ever get pursued for streaming movies and tv and only your iptv provider is of interest to ACE or FACT.

Torrents however by their nature turn most people into distributors. You have to turn off seeding and that then most often slows your download to not become one. You are then attractive as you can be hit with a pay this or go to court letter. In the US I have seen massive awards against defendants as each part shared they count as a copy so if say 1000 take 1 block they can issue an award for 1000 x the face value of the media so say a blu ray of £15 makes the potential of a 15K award.

TBH though in the UK it has not ever kicked off as it were and in the US it is pretty slow. Most just get a letter or a visit from ACE telling them to stop
