Interesting that they're targeting IPTV over torrent sites.
Pirate IPTV is really good these days. Makes sense that rights holders are annoyed by it.
Yeah I agree, it's more consumer friendly and mainstream than more "traditional" piracy, so the potential for IPTV to impact their revenue is much greater. Once you start getting into torrenting and usenet and the *arr suite, then it's a much smaller percentage of people with the right skills, equipment, and inclination to make it happen.
Once you have an automated setup like that, is IPTV even worth it if you don't like live events?
IMO if you’re not interested in sport then it’s honestly pretty useless, unless you’re a boomer who can’t let go of the 24/7 TV channel paradigm.
