Remux is lossless usually so it's the closest to blu-ray

Command & Conquer was like that for me. I pirated Red Alert 2, but ended up buying it like six times via various collections. None of that would have happened had I not had that first pirated copy.

Same here. YIFY torrents were just a gateway drug to 4k HDR blurays.

Smart. Far too many forums of old failed to keep a buffer and ended up dying when a temporary cost explosion happened. Thank you for your work o7

I'd honestly be willing to spend $30-$60 a month for 2012 netflix. It's the content loss that really killed things for me. Stupid-ass copyright holders.

I think a lot of us are in the same boat. The early days of Spotify and Netflix killed piracy for me.

Reddit’s algorithm has slowly deprioritized text-based content over time. I moderate a large discussion sub and our view counts have slowly declined over the past ten years, with the biggest drop happening when the redesign released. Discussion did happen on /r/piracy, but you had to go to the subreddit and sort by new.

I would also appreciate this in the name of transparency. Though, like you said, this is their instance and they owe me nothing. It’d be nice though.

YouTube. I more than get my money’s worth from it.

The only way to be certain is to reverse the process then run a hash check on the file to see if it's the same as the original file

I imagine most people are like me and have an old account and communities they like.

It's similar to why people don't e.g. flee states like Florida.

It's kinda dumb, but I get the feeling. They should just realize they can use both sites

I think the original implementation of copyright was fine
