(And I use “Free” loosely because I do pay for Prime Video, so it went from paid to much more expensive)

        It’s like the grocery stores that have digital price tags on them that they can adjust at anytime. They totally going to do surge pricing and other bullshit. I complete expect oh you picked up that item? Purchase just gotta up as soon as it’s touched

          I see where your coming from but not everyone has the space to seed a torrent. I think those that use stremio and understand torrenting will one day, if they have enough storage contribute to seeding. I’m running on 256gb here T-T

              Caching a torrent isn’t leeching. Like the other person said, it actually helps because it prevents multiple people from doing a hit and run. The torrent only needs to get cached once, and then everyone can just directly download that file, bypassing the torrent entirely.

                Caching a torrent requires downloading, no? What guarantee do you have that they’re seeding that leech?

                  There is no guarantee, because they’re not seeding. There’s one hit-and-run, then the torrent is cached on a server for anyone to directly download. Again, IMO one hit-and-run is still better than thousands.
