Just curious about learning more on how this style of sharing site works, and I'm not really sure how to classify it to do a search on it?

Obviously Primewire and sites like it share links that are hosted in another site, and these host sites seem to be all the same handful, like filemoon and dood, etc. But these host sites do not have any way to search for links in case the main site, like Primewire for the past week, go down.

Now, lots of these main sites have the same listings/links, but as I discovered, and so many others voiced, there are some shows that you can only find on 1 site, even if the links for that show are hosted on a site that other sites also pull from. Is it just as simple as no one has shared the link for a specific episode on another site? Like my one show only has working links via Primewire, and only 1 link per episode even, and I find that weird since it's not an obscure show. I'm just curious about how that works.

So I'd just like to learn a little bit more on this style of link sharing. Like should I share links that work in Primewire to other sharing sites like catflix if they don't have it as well? Or can only the person who created that link in the first place share them? Or should I just leave it alone and just make sure I watch all I need to now that Primewire is back and find a show that's more readily available once I finish this one.
