RIP fmovies. Long live sudo (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

fmovies has been gone almost a month. I should have added "FBI" up there but really they used FBI to shoot down the service, not be like them.

I don't understand when these companies are going to learn that sharing their IP is going to get them more money than being so fractured.

I started using sudo-lol and seems okay. Streaming can be hinky at times but it works for most of the things I want to watch.

I know that torrenting can be a thing but sometimes I just want to watch and not deal with a whole finding a torrent, download, and then watch workflow.

I just use my PC for movies + a projector that's plugged in, so I like keeping it really simple and avoiding stuff like Plex.

I like being able to access it anywhere, on (most) any device of my choosing.

I find I just end up watching too much media if it's too accessible like that. With discs + computer + projector, it's easier for me to have dedicated media time without it bleeding into other things I should be doing.
