    If media companies want us to consume their products legally, they need to make a version of Prowlarr, but for legal streaming sites.

        Except when you watch something it only links to some crappy streaming platform, where you still need a subscription to watch it. It does absolutely nothing to solve the issue of streaming platforms shrinking their libraries while at the same time increasing their prices. I would still need to subscribe to like 5 or 6 different services to watch all the stuff I like. No thanks, I’m gonna stay with piracy.

          To be fair, all Prowlarr does is make searching multiple torrent sites easy. That’s basically what this site does.

            Well, no one uses Prowlarr on its own. It’s obviously part of the *arr stack, which is basically always used with a BitTorrent client to download and organize the content.
