    I cancelled Netflix and prime and went back to piracy a few months ago, it’s been a nice blast from the past

      In addition to piracy, I’ve also been checking out DVDs from my local library. It’s kinda fun.

      Surprised myself because I half expected I’d miss the convenience of Netflix, but I haven’t missed it even a little.

      “Was I a good streaming platform?”

      “No.”

        The benefit of the library DVD is it takes away the “What will we watch tonight?” conversation. You’re going to watch the DVD.

        It was nice when you could actually watch almost everything on it. Once everyone else started taking peices of the pie it just feels like cable with more hoops now

        I would change that to:

        “Was I a good streaming platform?”

        “Yes, during your first year. Then all companies went greedy monkey savage and ruined it”

        It’s been really good

        Use yts.mx, if you use any other site, try checking comments first if they have them, if not you can use torrent file viewer to check the download is actually a video file before downloading

        Lastly you could try anti virus, but don’t rely on it to do your job for you, they can catch most but not always all viruses
