Most of my roms are in NSP format for some reason, I'm playing with an emulator though, my switch isnt hacked.

I wouldn't pay for plex, but i definitely pay for a seedbox and have an *Arr stack with jellyfin to stream it back to the jellyfin client on my tv boxes and I love it. It's all very automated and streamlined. I looked at streamio once, i cant remember specifically what but it didnt satisfy half the things my seedbox could. I'm also very against paying for access to pirated content, so i don't use usenet or debrid, but use a mix of public and private torrent trackers.

Yeah, otherwise it's treason.

He means whats the point in paying for usenet when p2p torrenting is free. And from my understanding its for people without enough bandwidth to seed.

[–] spaceaape@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 years ago

Ahh this makes more sense to me now. The seedbox service i pay for has great bandwidth, and my personal bandwidth is enough to stream 4k content from it. So i kinda use my seedbox as a proxy instead

I get what you're saying, but personally speaking, that's not enough of a benefit to start subscribing to a usenet provider and invest time hunting down newsgroups for content access. Its also not worth changing the bottom layer of my arr stack. Not to mention the time I've already invested into getting in the couple private trackers I'm in. I already don't have any issues getting the content I want to watch. I honestly don't see how its worth it for anyone. Like how often would one need to be searching for obscure content for it to be worth the monthly cost?

Edit, 5 downloads per day for a free membership is downright laughable to me. We're pirates ffs. This is p2p sharing.

I looked into usenet but i could never get over having to subscribe pay for it. Why bother when torrenting is free. I'm on a couple private trackers and use a few public, but I never pay for access for the trackers or pirated content. Ive donated before to private trackers, and I pay for my seedbox monthly but that's for a service, it's not a paywall for access. I also read there are download limits and having to find newsgroups that have the content you want. It all seems more work than its worth and you have to pay for the privilege to do that work for the same exact outcome. 🤷‍♂️

I think OP needs a decent private tracker that's pretty easy to keep up with. My main private tracker has a rule, seed 3x or for 3 days to avoid hit an run on any torrent. You can also use earned coins from seeding to pay off hit and runs.

Thats pretty much the entire point of this, they stated these are all scene releases. So fitgirl et al etc.

For some masochistic reason they sometimes come rar'd, iso'd, and custom windows based unpacker which is all really unnecessary and creates more points of potential failure for the linux gamer.

LinuzRules releases have linux .sh based unpackers, but even those arent guaranteed to work and can get stuck. I'd much rather just get the complete uncompressed files.

Tl;dr Scene releases use unpackers which often fail and multiple levels of unnecessary compression.

If you're standards are so low that you could hit a random button on Netflix and be satisfied with whatever comes on, then just use free services like tubi. It has a ton of content. Doesn't mean its worth watching to the majority of us, but hey if your bar is already that low 😂
