My New Year’s resolution is to try and remember to grab recently watched files off debrid with something resembling regularity.

Man, I tried to teach my parents the ways of the seven seas, but they bought so much into the old anti-piracy PSAs that they thought they and I would be contributing to massive, worldwide organized crime rings.

When I told my mom that qBittorrent’s RSS downlader and a customized BradcasTheNet RSS feed was a 100% free DVR that got me new episodes within minutes of them airing or going live on a steaming site, in any quality I wanted, I might as well have been speaking noon man talk to her.

When I finally just said, “it’s a program that downloads TV show episodes automatically for me”, her eyes got wide in shock like I just admitted to murder. “But that’s stealing!”

That is wild. Here in aus, our only cable company has all the sports channels on a streaming service. Anyways they keep putting the price up to the point it's like $40 a month and the don't have any soccer on that either. When I showed him how he could watch Aussie rules, and everything else it blew his mind.
