I watch a fair amount of series, but I'm not a data hoarder. I see the value in 2GB episodes, but I watch most series on my laptop, my simple 1920x1080 tv or even my phone where that value doesn't make a difference. If I want to have a theater experience, I'll go to the theater.

Most of the times I just want to enjoy a good story and relax before I go to bed.

I don't have infinite storage and I hate when I want to download something new, but Im out of storage, so I have to delete stuff first.

Why not just use those streaming sites then? You don't need to download anything

  • Saving files for offline enjoyment/no dependence on internet connection.
  • More player and playback options: easier rewind/fast-forward, chapter controls (for many releases), etc.
  • Fewer ads/pop-ups/phishing/etc. nonsense (depending on how effective your browser's adblockers are)
  • Often, choice of subs and dubs. Generally better ones than the generic DVD release subs. And sometimes, even commentary tracks.
