and WHAT Mr lawyer? There are countries where woman,minorities or both have no rights.
So do you agree also that there are sh.tty countries on this planet?
@igenn I don't like copyright law anymore than you do. We should work together to change it by e.g. developing open source software, donating to advocacy groups. In the mean time, you can use Popcorn Time if you want, but not everyone can afford to take the risk of civil disobedience.
Alright then! Why don't you pay for my NetFlix account? And Hulu? And Amazon Prime? And what-have-you?
Do you realise that you come through as a condescending pompous ass who presumes that the rest of us over here are ignorant or negligent of the Terms of Service?!
By the way, "we should work together to change..." -- how many software have you developed and open-sourced? how much have you donated to advocacy groups? Nobody needs your nannying, so don't proclaim "... not everyone can afford..." because you are NOT speaking for "everyone"!!
@cy6ernauti1us Sorry no, I am not going to pay for your Netflix subscription.

A good alternative is Filminator. Download it from filminator.net
Try Filminator instead. Download it from filminator.net
It's one of the best alternative to Netflix, providing content without a single amount being spent. It was not available for some time but it's working flawlessly as of now. UI is simple and quite good, it even lets you download the content
What PT really needs is an account based system where we can save our favourite multimedia and possibly a forum type dealio where we cahn use said accounts to chat and talk all within the PT app. Also, having your favourite multimedia tied to your account would mean that you could switch between versions of PT and still have your favs synced up and ready to go. However, having an account to use PT should never be forced.
