IDK man, I've never been a fan of cancel culture. Should someone standing up for the political beliefs mean they should have no career because people stop supporting them? I don't think so.
That said...yeah I'll do more to support people outside of mainstream Hollywood while I can (for example, I collect physical media, and I'll buy it firsthand from people I REALLY wanna support like the folks behind The Chosen, while for most people I'll just buy their stuff secondhand from eBay).
I'm not ideological like that. If actors I watch had to uphold my values I'd be stuck with mediocre and bad Christian films and shows, and I love art too much to do that to myself.
I'm always a "support the creators" dude. But what happens when the media disappears? Or if you're not allowed to own it, which is the primary way creators get paid? (Sure you can subscribe to Netflix or whatever but that will contribute to all of the $18 in the showrunners' royalty checks every year.) I generally don't support piracy, but the current landscape makes it hard for me to condemn it anymore in the majority of cases.
You could use either VNC or RDP to access your computer remotely through the GUI. I'd recommend RDP because it's more secure. You should also enable SSH just in case something goes wrong with the GUI connection or something.
The ones I'm most familiar with are stream2watch.me and also the LiveNetTV app for Android. Both were worse experiences than using legitimate streaming services. stream2watch.me had TONS of pop-up ads that were absolute hell to wade through. LiveNetTV is pretty good as far as piracy apps go, but there are pre-roll ads whenever you pick a channel which is kind of annoying.
Meanwhile with streaming services first you gotta figure out which one has the thing you want to watch. Then you hope it’s actually available in your country.
That's not that hard to figure out though unless you're trying to watch like Australian rugby in the Bronx or something. Most people aren't going to run into that problem unless American sports blackouts come into play.
If it is you can then watch it, but not in high resolution, that’s for the higher subscription tier, not the one you have.
What service keeps you from watching live channels in SD using a tiered system lol
Oh wait, actually, you can’t watch it, cause your mom is currently using your account on her own pc, and you can’t stream on two devices at the same time.
This doesn't apply 1:1 to most live streaming services but you do have a point here (Sling Orange only allows 1 simultaneous streams), especially if you have either a large family like the one I'm in, or you're trying to watch a bunch of live games at the same time.
Why don't you like the title?
