The TV streaming apps broke their promises, and now they’re jacking up prices (arstechnica.com)

For a moment, it seemed like the streaming apps were the things that could save us from the hegemony of cable TV—a system where you had to pay for a ton of stuff you didn't want to watch so you could see the handful of things you were actually interested in.

Stremio is pretty cool. Allows for streaming torrents with a lot of seeders. Watch most TV series and movies on there nowdays

Any good guides on setting it up?

idk if it has other capabilities, but to use on android basically just install it from the play store then install a bunch of community plugins for various sites. torrient io scrapes most public trackers

can cast to TVs too if your phone/tv has the capability

stremio has gotten way worse after rarbg went down. doesnt seem to scrape torrentgalaxy correctly even with the torrent already cached and i have no idea how to fix it
