Netflix is like the special olympics of internet movie watching.
A PC hooks right up to any modern TV and gives you torrents, plus you can browse the web and watch porn on your TV.  Netflix is the smallest slice of the pie.

Stoner comedies:

That 70's Show
Wilfred (US)
Futurama
Southpark Movie
Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
Scary Movie 2

Netflix is constantly adding and removing stuff so, a lot o fmy favorites are not up right now sadly.

It can be annoying looking for and or downloading quality TV/ movies all the time. Netflix is convenient for some things. I use netflix vs online about 50/50.

I never have trouble finding things I want on torrents, and finding stuff on Netflix actually requires more effort most of the time.  This is a fact.

How does searching something on netflix take more effort then looking up and downloading a torrent? :lol:

OK, teach me how to torrent on my phone or ps4 or maybe my laptop from the early 2000s with 0 virus protection.

Why would I do that?  Hook up a reasonable PC to a TV with an HDMI and you can literally replace  every source component in a system with it, unless you're absolutely determined to have physical media for some archaic reason.  Torrenting from your phone is easy unless you're on an iPhone, which sucks for you.  I can torrent all day on my Android devices.  You don't need virus protection for torrents if you aren't stupid about it; I never have and I've been torrenting for years and years without a single problem.

Exactly my point I am on an IPhone and a brand new PC is just out of my budget which makes Netflix one of my favorite inventions of all time.

:goodluckwiththat2:

So you torrent with your firewall and standard protection turned off then I assume?

Also just becouse you have never noticed a problem doesn't mean you haven't gotten any viruses or malware...

So your point is that you've bought a bunch of shit that doesn't let you do what you could do with other stuff if you'd bought them instead, and you want to act like getting torrents is such a huge pain.  Well, don't buy dumb shit that limits your abilities.  You don't need anything fancy at all to get torrents.  One of my main torrent machines is one of the first Mac Minis with an external hard drive on it.  My point is:  With a PC that can access Netflix AND torrents, finding a torrent is easier most of the time when you consider Netflix has a shit selection and torrents always have everything.

It depends on the machine I'm using.  On my machines, no, no protection and no problems.  LINUX distros and one Mac Mini.  NEVER a problem.  Any other silly questions?

How can you possibly think that's cost effective for someone who HAS to get cheap things because of their budget?

Also your Mac mini may be "old" to you but I have an 04 toshiba that wasn't expensive when it came out.

I haven't had any issues on my recent machines either but that doesn't mean it can't happen...

Also not everyone has the extra space to download and store a ton of videos...

What kind of budget necessitates cheap things yet still has room for Netflix and iPhones?  How'd you get the PS4 and how you do afford games for it?
To your edit:  the Mac Mini was free to me from someone who'd upgraded to something else.  It's "old" in that sense.  So being a free computer that wasn't being used at all I found a purpose for it by hooking up a hard drive with more space and downloading nothing but media to it.  Yeah, it's that simple.

Also, you don't need a ton of space to download media if you're good about deleting old stuff you don't use.  100GB would hold PLENTY of stuff, and hell newegg has 1TB hard drives in the $50 range.  An old, unused PC (everyone has those, craigslist has those) repurposed into a media center with a $50 hard drive is a bargain.  And I guess wireless mouse/keyboard has to be bought too, but still those aren't very expensive.

The iPhone was 100$ and I don't pay for data ( technically I have 1gb a month) I also use the ps4 for Amazon video "which is free if you have a friend with it" YouTube and tons of other stuff. I love gaming and prefer controllers when gaming. Even that I saved for a few years to get.

I don't ever have anti-virus installed on my computer. I don't have any issues. Anti-virus and anti-malware programs are training wheels anyways. If you've been downloading files and browsing the web for as long as I have, you shouldn't need any of that stuff to keep your computer clean.

I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear.

What kind of computer? Most have at least something built in.

Care to elaborate?

Malware is pretty much everywhere these days and its pretty easy to download some without even realizing it :shrug:

I use an HDMI on my TV for torrents too, but I also use Netflix. I like some of the Netflix original series, so I like to contribute to helping them keep it up.

Yeah I mean as I said I have an old computer so maybe there isn't malware anymore on torrent sites :shrug: they certainly used to


Getting back to good movies on Netflix, Arq has a simple but awesome premise. A guy and woman are in bed together he wakes up at exactly 6:16am and looks at her affectionately for 10-20 seconds and robbers come in and knock him unconscious drag him to the other room and then he barely escaped with them about to catch him when time resets to exactly 6:16 when he woke up except each time he remembers what happened last and can strategize/learn things about everyone's motives. That's not even giving anything away.

Cinematically I feel like it's flawlessly a good movie. I was suprised how awesome a Netflix original can be. Easy top 5 best movie to come out this year.  It's scifi action mystery in all equal parts.
