In the end I was finally so PO'd with my Blu Ray needing to update copyright protections and download the latest trailers before doing anything I switch to having a PC connected to my TV instead and threw out the Blu-ray.

I just wanted to sit down for a movie or dinner without screwing around or finishing my meal long before the movie even starts.

With streaming services that came later it was much easier to do that again. However with the cable-ification of the streaming services that PC on my TV is looking pretty good again..

Get a cheap chromecast, install stremio https://www.stremio.com/downloads install torrentio add on for stremio https://torrentio.strem.fun/configure

Enjoy a Netflix like experience with everything available in one place. In fact do this even if you use a pc, I just recommend chromecast because I like having a standard remote to control it.

I'm going to check this out. Currently I cast streaming videos from my laptop to my Chromecast built into my TV.
