    Someone more clever than me can find a joke there, I’m sure!

  For me the joke is that there were any Star Trek fans who’d consider anything but torrenting (though I’ll admit ed2k is still not finally dead, and Fopnu is a usable filesharing tool, albeit proprietary).

    I watch Lower Decks and Strange New Worlds on Paramount+ only because I want them to keep getting made

      The funny part is that I have legitimate accounts with Prime, Netflix, Paramount+, Apple and two others, but I still d/l and watch everything on Plex. (though I should probably admit that all the big names I get “free” via other services, like Prime, Tmo, etc).

    The easiest way to stop piracy is not by putting antipiracy technology to work. It’s by giving those people a service that’s better than what they’re receiving from the pirates

      There’s a structural problem - it may be beneficial for companies as some coherent entities to provide such a service, but for individuals inside them, like various kinds of sales, management and so on, it’s not.

      In every case where such an elusive thing as potential popularity of something conflicts with a less elusive thing like control they have in streaming services, the latter wins. Because what makes its makers rewarded on their job wins.
