With so many streaming services nowadays it makes me wonder how come there aren't any services where you pay one monthly bill that covers all of the services that you choose to pay for. Kind of like an old cable subscription except for media streaming since you'll likely end up paying the same price you would normally for cable after trying to get every single streaming service on the internet. How come this isn't a thing yet?

With usenet, nzbs & you can have a "subscription" you pay for and have pretty much all the common media available to you.
That's considered pirating of course. Depending on the tools you use this can be pretty convenient too, but of course it's all on the PC.

Besides that, you can get a vpn and get more out of a netflix subscription.

because who the fuck needs to consume that much media?
the difference between cable television and a streaming service is that with cable you don't decide when you can watch the content. with streaming services, you're not bound to the network's schedule which means you don't have to have overlapping subscriptions. the content won't disappear for at least a few months.

For the same reason most companies won't work together to sell a superior product. They aren't happy just making money, they want to make ALL the money.

I'm sure apps will arise where you can bundle your subscriptions for ease of access, but you'll still be paying for them individually.

In some countries while torrenting is technical illegal consumer protection laws still prevent these insufferable law firms to extort money in bulk from bit-torrent users.
This means nobody gets fined either because they would have to go after each person individually which isn't economically feasible.

To be clear, in some countries, those where the industry successfully bribed lawmakers to pervert copyright law they do go after everybody.
The crux is they threaten to sue you for not only the media you consume but also for the media everybody consumes who you transmit bittorrent chunks to.

In other countries they could only sue you for the media actively put on the platform or technically the media you download without owning the rights.
And that only for an amount that is akin to a fair market value, like a streaming fee.
So if you had 100 movies from torrent they could sue you for 1000 bucks. Big whoopdie doo...

In the countries which have perverted copyright laws the can potentially sue you for lets say 100^2 * 10, so 100000 bucks. Of course this actually never happens because sane courts throw out the case. But what they are doing instead is sending letters in bulk. They threaten to sue for like 100000 and ask for a "settlement" of lets say 2342.

No. They will send out mass notices to any IP in the peer pool. It depends on which shitty troll agency is sending them, but sometimes they will threaten legal action if you don't send them X amount of money. I got one for a Willie Nelson torrent that I only got the cover scan from.

I know a friend that Spotify college student account and she also gets Hulu and Showtime included for just $5 but that's all I know. Problem is that I can't see services like Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime Video reducing their prices to include their video services with other ones for one subscription price on a whole other platform. Closest thing we really have is with Apple where you can use your Apple ID to connect all your subscribed streaming services through the TV app. I also use Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and HBO but I'm maxed on streaming services I'm willing to subscribe to. Everything else that's on DC Universe, Cinemax, Starz, Epix and all those other premium cable and streaming services that you have to subscribe to I'm better off just watching on a free television show streaming site.

I also do find it funny people are getting all up in arms about NBC taking back The Office from Netflix. I mean that shit was bound to happen eventually.

The state of television for decades:

>You wanna watch TV? Okay, that'll be $100 a month. Included in that price is 500 channels you don't give a fuck about, including free OTA channels. For an extra $20, we'll give you what you really want: HBO, Showtime, MTV, Disney Channel, etc. You just want HBO? Too bad, you gotta buy our basic tier first, $100.

Late 2000s:

>Hi, we're Netflix. For $10 a month, you get access to our catalogue of movies and tv shows.

>Hi, we're Hulu. For $10 a month, you get access to our catalogue of movies and shows.

>Hi, we're HBO. For $10 a month, you get access to our catalogue of movies and shows.

Retards in 2019:

>I'm tired of juggling all these subscription services. Can somebody just charge me $120 and give me everything?

People begged for à la carte tv services for years. We finally got it... Now people wanna jump back in bed with the scam artists, lmao.

If you're paying more than $20 a month for tv, you're a damn fool with your finances, period. There's no reason to have a bunch of streaming services. You get one, maybe two, pay for $10 fee for that month, catch up on all their shows/movies and let it expire after the month. Then you go to another streaming service, do the same thing.

You aren't missing out on anything by only having HBO 4 months out of the year. Their series are available year round and they don't cycle their movies that quickly either. The same can be said for practically every other service.

Its predicted that there is an impending fracture of streaming services similar to what is happening in Australia. In Australia there is a streaming service for sports and another reality television, you cant view any of the content on these two services on other platforms, both cost $10-$15P/M. its expected that this is going to be the dominant model and that netflix will begin to look more like a traditional cable service where you buy a netflix subscription and then purchase individual packages for the kind of content you want.

That being said, thats what disney is already gearing up for. There is going to be a steady increase in cost for particular content as more and more people shift away from traditional television sources.

You wont find any bargains on 2.5s. If you can fit 3.5" HDDs then your best bet is to wait for WD 8TB EasyStores to go on sale again(they go on sale all the time) at best buy and then shuck them. It is by far the cheapest per tb you can get.

Not in the 8TB EasyStores I pulled a ton of reds out of them before I upgraded my media servers and went with 12tb drives. Now there are some that have a 3.3v pin issue, the WMAZ from Thailand I believe, but that is simply fixed with some kapton tape.

They are not WD blacks, golds, or purples but they are better than greens(which are no longer made) or blues and are pretty much equal to reds if you don't get a "true" red (not red pro) They are also usually only $140 for 8tb vs well over $200 for a standalone WD 8tb Red drive.

So, yeah, its worth it even for 1 drive and especially for a pool. Oh and don't forget the extra parity drives and at least 1 offsite backup.

Problem is(as I recently read)) they're splitting up even more.

Instead of licensing everything to Netflix expect the following to be in their own...

NBC WANTS THE OFFICE BAVK, SOON. IT REGULARLY IS TRENDING ON NETFLIX. new content losing to a show from 9 years ago.

HBO will continue to go it alone.

DISNEY will have a service.

I believe AMC is doing the same.
CBS all access for STAR trek and ABC for HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER.

There's a few others I forget, but I remembered thinking oh good the age of streaming is now going to be the age of a million costly services.

Push me away!
I will keep netflix and be loyal. Other than that I will torrent everything I want.

Nothing makes sense.
SyFy canceled the best new space show by far. Thankfully it was saved by AMAZON? OR HULU?

I forget.
I'll be tormenting it anyway.

This has been happening for a while now. What media companies fail to realize is that it isn't about how much something costs, it's the ease of access that's the real determination.

Tons of people enjoy the weekly episode release model because it encourages and supports discussion. But when you charge for it, you just push the pirates to attain episodes with the least effort required.

I'm getting more and more behind the opinion that streaming services should be defined as public utilities. Or at least force them out of their current model of trying to get new customers.
The whole "exclusive" aspect should be completely prohibited.
While not much can be done about original programming deals with third party studios that limit content to a particular service certainly fall under the anti-trust category.

I agree but this isn't limited to just the television and film industry. It's also has been going on in video games for a long time but most of that has been first party games but more recently, you've got Epic Game Store making deals with having 3rd party exclusives on EGS instead of Steam due to its 88/12 split with developers instead of Steam's 70/30 to a huge backlash.

If you look at all the recent multi-million dollar syndication deals on streaming services like The Office going to Peacock, Friends and The Big Bang Theory going to HBO Max, Seinfeld going to Netflix, etc. Streaming services, like EGS, are throwing money just to get shows whether they're old or recent because they know people will sign up just to watch reruns of those shows. Sure there's exclusive original shows and movies people but it's building their respective libraries of old shows and movies that really counts.

Yes that's more or less the same thing.
I even think that these practices are already prohibited but just not enforced because neither the consumer nor creator side has the funds to sue the platforms.

What I don't get is why there isn't a "flatrate" service for TV & Movies yet.
It could work the same way youtube premium works.
Consumers pay a monthly subscription fee, perhaps based on the quality (like SD, HD, UHD) and can watch every content out there.
And after the cut for the platform each subscription fee is then distributed among the content that was watched each month.

Right, and these streaming services think that having big libraries of old shows will increase subs when they really don't. Sure The Office is one of Netflix's most watched shows but will people flock in droves to Peacock just to watch it?

I have to wait till 2021 or something before it's available in Europe. This licencing fuckery is really getting on my nerves.
I mean I can't even follow the crossover event of all the DC shows because Batwoman isn't available anywhere.
Some HBO shows like Watchmen are available here, but only through some other BS service that is tied to a specific ISP.

My personal "ethics" behind torrenting stuff instead of paying for it pretty much draws the line somewhere around here. For practical purposes this also means if I have to get up and walk to the PC I'm not paying for it.
And if it's because of geoblocking I even feel good about it.

For every month you waste money on pointless streaming services you could be adding another HDD to your server pool and filling it with content you actually want, that never goes away, and is always available. Add on something like sonarr and radarr and you can have your favorite series downloaded, renamed, sorted and added to emby/kodi/plex a minute or two after they air automatically and streaming to an unlimited number of devices.

It's a lot of streaming but between that bundle and Netflix's standard plan, it's $26 a month. The rest of them I get for free since I have a one year free trial of Apple TV+ and HBO, Showtime, and Peacock I receive through my roommate's Cox cable subscription. My apartment bundles Cox cable and internet for $100 a month with HBO and Showtime being included at no additional charge and on top of that, HBO Max and Peacock's Premium with ads plan are free to Cox subscribers. I had canceled my Amazon Prime free trial before it charged but I'll probably re-up again by next week to watch The Boys season 2.

My roommate pays for it, not me, though a $100 flat fee for cable (plus HBO and Showtime included) and internet is a bargain. Also most of these like Apple TV+ and Peacock aren't worth paying for so I'm glad to get them for free at least. Using different streaming services is subjective considering the differences in content for each one and they all have their pros and cons. Personally, I like Hulu because they have FX and they have some good original movies and shows like Palm Springs and Ramy.

does anyone here use XBMC on a home theater PC setup? I'm thinking about buying a PSU for old motherboard and just put that thing under my dumb TV as an HTPC

a few years ago there were these epic stream services you could add to XBMC that would have like every movie up towhats in theaters 100% free, totally forgot what its called. Can anyone here help a nigga out?

these were free pirate streas btw. they had this code name like "orbit" or some shit. Someone here has to know what I'm talking about. Close to pulling the trigger on a budget PSU to set up this rig.

"those sites" you wanna help a nigga out or what?

related question, I want to be able to use my android tablet/phone youtube app to directly start a stream on my Windows 10 based HTPC the way you would on a usual smart TV. I have the youtube vanced apk on all my android devices, and it works on other modern smart TVs with the officail youtube app on them

This is one of the bigger things I haven't solved yet.. can you seamlessly integrate that with a HTPC? like see the stream-top option in the list on the youtube app on my phone?

yeah I do that with all my shit. The idea is that sometimes you want that channel surfing quality, where you find something you otherwise wouldn't have. Don't get that with torrents as much where you have to really choose what you want to download and then download and lock yourself into watch it. But yeah torrent scene is still strong enough I can usually get what I want. Karagarga account fills in most of the gaps, the WHAT.cd of movies, thank god it's still alive

Not sure if it counts as a subscription service, but I've been enjoying chucking on the free Plex TV channels on in the background. Either the hip-hop music video channel while at work, or sometimes the Aliens or Nature channels when going to bed.

There's also a 24/7 kung-fu movie channel which looks like it'd be cool, and a Maury/Jerry Springer channel.

Whitman and Katzenberg underestimated the streaming market becoming much more competitive now than ever especially with HBO Max and Peacock also coming out this year and the demand for short-form content on only mobile devices. This quote from the article is a good explanation:

>“Quibi was based on a sound premise,” Leichtman said. But its “challenge in building an active subscriber base goes well beyond the fact that it was designed specifically for mobile phone viewing at a time when people were spending much more time at home. It is also a reminder that regardless of experienced leadership and strong financial backing, no streaming video business model is a gimme, particularly one that includes consumers paying to subscribe where there is a plethora of free alternatives.”
