fmovies has been gone almost a month. I should have added “FBI” up there but really they used FBI to shoot down the service, not be like them.

I don’t understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

I started using sudo-lol and seems okay. Streaming can be hinky at times but it works for most of the things I want to watch.

I know that torrenting can be a thing but sometimes I just want to watch and not deal with a whole finding a torrent, download, and then watch workflow.

    Yeah, but not as good. RealDebrid basically acts as a CDN for torrents, they’re serving you the files they’ve already downloaded directly to you.

    From what I can tell, sudo flix is streaming torrents from the seeders, so you are reliant on there being enough seeders with decent upload speeds.

    Somebody feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

      With stremio I can copy the strem link to potplayer and potplayer will buffer a good chunk of strem more than stremio’s default player does

      First time seeing debrid. Looks interesting. Is it a paid service? When looking for an API key I’m seeing multiple places I can get one but they all require a login/subscription. The real debrid link is giving me a 403, though I am connecting from China over a VPN which may explain it.

        Yes, it’s a paid service. It’s about 3 or 4 euro per month. I tried it once because I was annoyed by the lack of seeders and buffering in stremio and I’ve never looked back since. It requires a bit of setup, but when that’s done you’re good to go.
