Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I'm off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here's the proof.

    The quality and experience is horrible though.

    Torrenting always wins. But maybe you have poor internet and don’t want to wait for a download (although you can watch a movie while downloading it.)

    A Plex server with automatic downloading is way more convenient.

      Usenet is even better. I have my *arrs set up to run both and tdarr transcodes everything to h265 10 bit.

      I’m scared to do torrent man. I didn’t care about it when I was in Indonesia. Now I live in Germany, and now I’m scared of doing it.

        Just use a good paid VPN and bind the VPN network Interface to your torrent client so that it’s impossible to torrent without the VPN turned on.
