I hope that they put them all back on pretty much any other platform so I can unsubscribe from that garbage service. My BF still watches Netflix sometimes so I haven't gotten rid of it, sigh. Put it back there please. That was the only thing I used Netflix for.
Screw netflix and the others. For like 5 moneyz a month you could go sonarr. Enter "star trek tng", wait. Watch on your own machine in the quality you prefer. You only need to be a bit tech-savvy and it's only a one-time-work-investment. You will never go back.
But think of Paramount's profit loss! Oh no we might not get more star trek prodigy oh no!
OMG My bad, sorry. I didn't think of the megacorps :-(
First they'll cancel Prodigy and then next thing you know they might cancel TNG or DS9. It's a slippery slope!
Streamio is really good too (my sister in law uses it for everything). I think it is free too and the interface is really professional for what is essentially a torrent tool.
The problem with it is that it hides a little bit too much how illegal it is. It's kinda good that torrenting is not absolutely one-click easy to access, because then people are actually more likely to understand what they're doing.
I think most people who install it know full well what they are doing and simply install it because it makes things a lot easier. They only reason I haven't done it myself is I can't be bothered atm.
If you are searching the internet for an application that lets you view just about everything for free, then you are well aware that you are sailing the high seas of piracy.
If it's torrent-based, then it would be suicide to use it where I live. Torrent without VPN = instant regret :)
Update: it’s back to normal but it still scared me 🤣 any idea why it wouldn’t let me watch for a certain amount of time?
Paramount+ as a web app sucking all the things that are derogatorily sackable is likely the cause. It is an objectively horrible platform.
Can’t even binge a show without episodes randomly playing in another language, or the ad free version starts playing ads
I recently cancelled my paramount account due to the ads. found a great alternative that's 100% cheaper. put on the episode, "the measure of a man" and drifted off to sleep.
I haven't seen ads run during a show, but every now and then they'll shove whatever they're movie or show they're trying to push in a preview before a new episode runs. I just hit back and start it again and it goes away.
that's what I experienced as well. although it's minor, I think it's a PITA.
Thats called an ad
Yeah sorta. But it's like if YouTube advertised other channels instead of "products". I still consider it an ad but I think if fits loosely.
It sucks and I canceled it and subscribed to it through YouTube which means paramount gets 30% less money.
The app is objectively terrible. Barely useable.
I think it just had issues yesterday, I was using it to watch episodes of CSI asy background noise show and last night it had no "episodes list" despite me being able to play the next episode
I'd wager it was just some sort of bug or glitch, I've seen similar things happen on other streaming services
Interesting.
I have only experienced disappearing-reappearing -ink- Programs on P+.
why do you let a corporation control whether or not you can watch something? don't use paramount+ or any other DRM-locked service. Sooner or later they will take it away, and there's no guarantee you'll have access to it if you don't have your own copy.
The bdrips are better anyway. I suggest you download those
I was watching it on there last night
Me too. I was watching Yesterday's Enterprise. Great episode.
