Evidently screwing customers twice by making them watch ads for the same price they used to get ad-free has been profitable. Let the enshitification continue!

In other news, their ad sales VP left this week for some reason.

I did my part. As soon as they started messing around with making me log in and provide security codes every month for TVs on different networks, I cancelled.

If you make your paid product more inconvenient than piracy, I’m gonna set sail.

Sailing is so much better than managing when to stop and continue payment for the dozens of streaming services.

not to mention having to remember which app has which shows/movies at any given time.

None of that for me, they're all on Stremio!

Streaming was great because it was easy relatively customer friendly. Though those days are behind me but it sure looks like I need to dust off the ol' sails.

I'll give you the best three word combination you'll ever hear before you set sail: Stremio, real-debrid, Torrentio. Look it up and be free, my child. Be free!
