    1. Ditch all paid streaming apps.
    2. Research how Stremio, Torrentio, and Real-Debrid work together.
    3. Never pay to see ads ever again.

      Except you have to watch out and buy TVs that don’t show ads by themselves these days…

        To prevent this from happening, you should always check RTINGS first before buying a TV (or any electronics, for that matter). Scroll down to the “Ad-Free” section for the review of the TV you’re considering.

        Am I behind the times? I don’t use a television. I use a desktop computer with monitors. The television itself will show ads.?

      Exactly, it’s really the perfect combination, to be honest. For what? $3 a month? Outrageous?

      Or go to one of the streaming websites like 123 movies or whatnot and use an ad blocker. Same experience to an extent.

        It’s €16 for 6 months of all the content you could ever care to stream, delivered straight to your living room. So yeah, about $2.75/mo USD for 1000x more content than any other streaming platform. Deal of the century.

        I should also mention that the addon support for Stremio is huge, allowing you to customize your feed exactly how you like it. A good addon for example is Trakt.tv, which recommendeds content based on your viewing habits. Perfect for people who are too dependent on Netflix/Disney/Max/YouTube/etc. and their algorithms (me).

        As the icing on the cake, Stremio also has HDR & Dolby Atmos support. Great for home theater geeks like me.
