Pirate Netflix (discuss.tchncs.de)

With the recent password sharing crackdown, I decided to ditch my Netflix subscription and try piracy. What I miss about Netflix is scrolling through content and finding something to watch. With piracy I need to know exactly what I am looking for.

So I am wondering if it's possible to have a Netflix like GUI but powered by piracy? And as this is the pirate world, it shows shows and movies not just from Netflix but also from the other streaming services? And finally it is available on TVs ( Samsung tizen in my case). Something like this would be the best case scenario. Wondering if someone has a similar setup?

Get stremio.

This. Stremio is exactly what you're looking for OP. Works just like Netflix, runs on your TV. Every show/movie from every streaming platform is there.

Just make sure to install the Torrentio and Streaming Catalogs plugins to get the free content to show up. I also recommend a Real-Debrid subscription cause it it allows you to stream instantly without delay. (In fact, you can download any torrent you want instantly with Debrid.)

Is this possible without torrents? Like getting content from a streaming website rather than torrents?

[–] Psythik@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Stremio uses torrents, but they're direct downloads. Everything is stored on a separate server. It's similar to a seed box, except no waiting cause the files were already downloaded beforehand by what's called a "Debrid service".

You can also use Debrid to directly download any torrent you want, not just movies and TV. I have a gigabit connection so it's way faster than any torrent client could ever dream to achieve.

Is streamio similar to Kodi? I used to use that back in the day and it was good, then suddenly it got super popular and a bunch of the plugins were taken down/blocked by ISP's and I moved back to torrenting

Not really. Is like Netflix but it streams torrents. You just need the toreentio or tpb plugin. And then take all the normal torrent precautions.
