I have spent some time recently browsing through the various streaming options listed in the piracy and FMHY megathreads and I am curious which one people prefer.
movie-web for example works great but when you click on a title it goes right to playing where as Braflix pulls up a summary, trailer, and list of actors. Braflix also categories based on the streaming service like Apple+ and Amazon which can be good for content discovery.
Unfortunately you can’t click on the streaming service categories to view more and it doesn’t list a lot of other somewhat popular streaming services like Shudder. Braflix also doesn’t say what whether or not something is a cam rip unlike some sites like himovies.
Some websites also handle sorting better than others or have server problems.
I don’t know if people really care or if they just click on the first link they see/use what they’ve already been using for years.
Content discovery for me is probably the most important factor. I like being able to sort by the IMDb rating and having a section that says “If you like X you might like Y” is also nice.
I like the stremio app with the torrentio extension, it’s really easy to use, and with your stremio account you can keep track of the movies and series you watch
the issue is that without a debrid provider, which you have to pay for, many series and movies aren’t seeded, so more obscure media is less likely to work
The obscure content thing is an issue I’ve run into especially looking for ~70s era sci-fi or horror movies that are regarded as cult classics or underrated online.
+1 for Stremio and Torrentio, this is all I use
best streaming anything: Stremio best streaming site: lookmovie2
A year and a half ago I could have named a bunch, used them for over a decade (but of course domains would frequently change). But since switching to my own plex server + torrent, I’ve never looked back. It gives you all the meta data, trailers, rating and recommendations which you’d expect from paid streaming services, even features like skip intro/credits and keeping track of your progress (even mid episode).
I know, it’s not what you’re asking for, but someone had to bring it up.
Any mirror of sudo-flix, preferably your own.
Nice try RIAA. My favourite isn’t in the Mega thread HAHAHA HAHAHAHA losers
I think they’re aware of your stash of full Family Guy episodes on Youtube featuring random zooms.
Also doesn’t the RIAA only cover the music industry?
Stremio, imo is the best. Shit just works with no hassles and with very minimal setup with torrentio and some catalogs. I also like some anime specific apps like dantotsu, aniyomi, mihon on android with aniyomi extensions repo
When it comes to torrents and private trackers, Nyaa.si,Mam, Ipt and TL are my go to.
Braflix is awesome, it’s my default go-to
