I have been pirating games for about a year now, and with the recent Netflix changes want to get into pirating TV and Movies as well. I have Kodi on my fire sticks, but streaming links are so unreliable.

I see on the Mega Thread there are plenty of sites to direct download shows and movies from, what sites from the mega thread do you all prefer?

Also, I get that I download them to my computer, but what service do you all use to get them on your TV? I have fire sticks on every TV, I think Plex is a free one that people used to use (and may still) but I don't really know how any of it works. Would love some experienced advice.

You’ll generally want to look for h265 or HEVC in the description. These are newer codecs that preserve more quality in smaller file sizes. Neither will play on a Raspberry Pi if that’s a concern.

it is not. I would love to do a raspberry pi setup but I can't find anywhere that either a) has them in stock or b)has them in stock and doesn't charge an arm and a leg.

I really appreciate it though, I'll definitely check this out for some of my series that I don't need in 4k

I think they do actually work with a 4, but not the 3b that I tried on.
