Title: Popcorn Time
Post by: reidrolled on March 13, 2014, 09:07:24 PM: :popcorn:
Has anyone else read about this app? I downloaded it and it is really phenomenal. Almost too phenomenal. I know it's clearly illegal. what I would like to know is how I can watch these movies without getting thrown in the hoosgow. If i used a VPN would that make it harder to get caught? is there a way I can prevent my computer from seeding the files? or should I just stay away from it all together.

I am not concerned with the morality of stealing movies fwiw.

Post by: reidrolled on March 13, 2014, 11:19:12 PM: I don't know that I feel particularly wrong about this subject. This app is pretty much going " hey reidrolled, you wanna watch all the movies in the movie theaters but don't want to pay for them or leave your couch? Cool, here they all are. But there's a small chance that you could end up with a lawsuit unless you find a way to not get caught."

What if I told you my hobby is to watch brand new movies? And if I can find a safe way to watch them through this app I can save a ton of money and watch them whenever I want and open up time for other hobbies? Would you tell me how to set up a secure network so I can use this app without getting sued?

The whole point of this thing is to stream the movie so you don't have to waste time downloading something. Also, you know what the quality of the video is right off the bat. The problem as far as I can tell is that when you stream it, the app downloads part of the movie on your computer and uses that to stream to other ppl.

Post by: michigancat on March 14, 2014, 10:19:14 AM: Seriously, just watch new movies when they come out on netflix. They'll be new to you.
Title: Re: Popcorn Time
Post by: mocat on March 14, 2014, 10:19:50 AM: oddly enough torrents seem safer. also you know the quality you are going to get with a torrent if you are not a complete idiot

Post by: CNS on March 14, 2014, 10:23:51 AM: There is a cheap and quick way to set up a Tor server at your house(allegedly). you could do that and watch that stuff through the deep internet and stuff. Also, buy some drugs and have someone killed, or something.

Post by: mocat on March 14, 2014, 11:17:34 AM: yes i absolutely am one of those pirates. WGAF about uploading and exposing yourself? there's plenty of uploaders out there already who are either dumbasses or high tech hacker nerds who aren't worried about it.

Enough ppl already buy the music, so it won't hurt the artist if I download this song, or movie

I don't know what else to say. It's pretty much just Netflix but with brand new movies. If you find a way to make it work without getting caught let me know. I think you can download it in a number of places.

There is some add on for chrome that lets you choose what country you seem to be from. Get that and put in Mexico. When I netflixed in Mexico I think they had twilights. Could not figure out how to turn subtitles off though

They don't have Twilight movies because only three women want them, you, my daughter and some other random woman somewhere

Sorry
