Just saw a reel in instagram that prices for the adobe has increased without notification and cancellation charges are 13k rupees (Indian).

Wasn't sure to post that video as the content creator was speaking in a selfi video. Hope she doesn't mind - Link

Just wanted to give a shoutout to this subreddit for introducing me to Real Debrid. I've been using Stremio and torrenting for years, but I had no idea how much of a game-changer Real Debrid could be. At first, I was a bit confused since I couldn't find a clear guide, but after doing some digging, I finally got the hang of it thanks to the helpful posts here. I've got it set up with Torrentio now, and it's been a total game-changer.

I ended up going for the 180+ day plan, and honestly, it’s been a blessing for Stremio. I saw a post notification about RD + Stremio pop up on my phone and got curious, which led me down this path.

And to those saying "We should be gatekeeping this for ourselves" under RD + Stremio posts—come on, that's so lame. We should be helping each other out and sharing tips on how to watch and download content. I’ve been torrenting since 2007, but I still find something new every time I visit this sub.

Big thanks to everyone who takes the time to break things down and help others out!

I have a Netflix subscription (I don’t pay for it) and 100% of the time when I want to watch a movie or a show on Netflix I just watch it there without even thinking of pirating because it’s so much easier. Do you guys also just consume media through legal means if you have easy access to it or do you still just pirate whatever you want to watch for the fun of it? I certainly take advantage of my free Netflix when I can (I mean technically it’s still piracy because I’m not the one paying for the subscription).

I have a bunch of DVDs, many dozens, and want to put them up on my Plex server. Handbrake will not transfer DRM protected DVDs. I also tried MKV maker to no avail. What do you lot use for encoded, protected DVDs? I want them to be MP4. I have a lot of old 60s and 70s era horror films that do work with handbrake but only around 75% of them. Most more modern films can get using Video Download Helper so not an issue. It's then older, obscure grindhouse ones I want to enshrine on Plex not available on streaming sites.

I'm using arr-scripts connected with Lidarr and Deezer (and previously Tidal). I'm downloading thousands of albums without any work at all. It's entirely automated, and there's no need to seed anything at all. This is too easy.

So, I'm kinda embarrassed to say this but I only learned about custom OS's life tech ReviOS and Ghost. If you also don't know, they are customised versions of windows installations that offer better privacy and control over your PC.

For those of you that already know about these, can you offer any advice on which to choose, and why? I have a Radeon RX 5700 TX so I'm starting to get back into gaming so these OS's are quite intriguing since I'm rebuilding my PC with new motherboard and case tomorrow and I'm doing a fresh windows 11 install.

Any advice here is appreciated. Hopefully I don't get flamed/downvoted for asking this question.

I don’t think about it often, but it is the honor of my life to count myself as a member of this great family.

Culture is everything to me. All forms of art. And I wouldn’t be the person I am today if this community hadn’t helped me acquire this culture. I’m not making a lot of money and I’d be dirt poor if I had to pay for every piece of media I wanted to consume.

I’ve walked under the black flag for two decades now and I always try to do my part. I’ve come to respect so many piratelords, worship them even. They have my utmost respect for the quality of what they are allowing us to enjoy.

I don’t care about the bad side (porn and stuff). I just want to watch yet another obscure movie that only this community was able to provide - out of the goodness of their heart.

Thank you so much. I wanna keep sailing the high seas with you, guys. You are family, and I love you.

For two years now, 24 consecutive months, I have been stupid enough to give this garbage company my money. Today I went through all of my subscriptions and decided to finally cancel my Photo-plan with Adobe which costs me $12 a month. They recently just increased their pricing.

I was aware of the fact that you can't cancel your subscription early without being met with a cancellation fee (I was made aware of this after I first started subscribing, of course) though it's already been two years. But apparently, this 12 month subscription is renewed automatically, and unless you by some miracle decide to cancel within the 2 week period after said 12 month subscription is renewed, you'll be met with a fee. In my case, 66 goddamn dollars. Or that's what you would think, at least.

The insane part is, I started subscribing the 9th of August in 2022. I would ASSUME it would be renewed the 9th of August every year. I am billed on the 9th every month, after all. It's currently August 14th, and 2 weeks have not passed since the presumed renewal date. YET I'M STILL MET WITH A CANCELLATION FEE. Exactly WHEN can I cancel this garbage without being charged and exorbitant fee if not now?!

This is predatory, should be illegal, and I sure as hell hope they get sued to oblivion for this.

It is these sort of practices that lead people to piracy, and I will never in a million years ever give this garbage company another cent of my money. I hope hell has reserved an especially gruesome spot for the executive fucks who came up with the idea of having a cancellation fee for a monthly billed subscription model.
