Hmm. I've tried different ways to enter it, but I'm not interested in buying a domain for almost $400,000.
Only 1 s when you join the words and the TLD is ws, not com. I haven't tried that site yet so no comments on it. I stream east period app is my normal way to sit at my desktop.

Everything this app does is the same as Kodi which has been around fovever. It's a media player with an add-on architecture that has add-on for everything talked about in the video. It's also great at playing my local UHD rips which is the main reason I have a box running Kodi. The one I have will actually play the FEL layer of DV rips.

If you use anything like this with the torrent plugins make sure you're on a VPN. You will get emails from your ISP if you're not. Debrid services can be used without one.

I actually don’t use Streamio it was just an fyi for Mainstream

I personally use Stream Source

So fun story. On Sunday I started going through a massive upgrade of my Media Server from an old slow Windows box to a really fast Linux Mini-PC. Everything went well, except sometime while I was going through the Operating System setup, I lost 8 of my drives, nearly 50TB of media files. Turns out the files aren't gone, the drives themselves should still have all the content, it just needs to go through a recovery process. But it's going to take a couple weeks to recover, at least.

That sucks, good luck with it.

I’m getting peacock too. The only way I go back to cable is because of espn. But no interest in getting cable again.

My media server is still not completely fixed, so I did temporarily subscribe to Hulu and then use Amazon Prime (but very rarely -- I can't believe they want MORE money for no ads).

I bought a new television expecting simple plug-and-play.

Instead, I got an entire production involving TV settings, streaming options, a satellite receiver, a DVD player, a soundbar, and several remotes that won’t stay in sync.

The TV itself works, but getting everything else set up feels like solving a Rubik’s cube while blindfolded. Life shouldn’t be this hard.

Ironically, it's called a Smart TV. :D

And I wouldn't touch the smart tv features with a 10' pole. Don't even hook the tv up to the internet. They're a privacy nightmare. Samsung has been caught with their hand in the cookie jar before, LG is doing the below, and brands like TCL are no better. Use an AppleTV or Nvidia shield for steaming services.
