I mean, if you're concerned that malware is going to be injected into your video files… Who’s to say your torrents aren’t already infected?
And yeah, to an extent it requires less knowledge, but the WAF is much higher on a “watch it now” platform than a “I want to watch this let me add it to a queue to watch it later” platform.
I’m also a fan of the fact that I don’t need to dedicate storage to what is essentially a single use file.
But to each their own, of course.
Oooo that’s a really good point I hadn’t thought about although I’m sure you could setup an auto purge of old torrents pretty easily with whatever language you’d like.
Also an excellent point about the initial source possibly being malicious but I did want to bring up the counterpoint that the torrent portion is inherently risky but this service would be adding additional risk on top of that
I can see the use for a real-time torrent streamer but the download management portion just screams adware, Trojan, etc which are only getting worse and nastier as the days go by.
