    Same here, I used to torrent all my movies. Then Netflix came out, it was a lot simpler and less time consuming to just pay 10$ a month. I torrented a lot less after that.

    But now, streaming companies are just turning into cable channels. Completely negating why streaming became so popular in the first place, because it wasn’t cable. You didn’t have to suffer through ads and you could watch what you wanted when you wanted.

    It’s no surprise, that’s what capitalism is, everything eventually turns to shit in the pursuit of infinite growth.
