'BayStream' gives you an instant play button for torrent releases. If you want to stream The Mandalorian but don't have a Disney+ subscription, there's a new, albeit illegal option: The Pirate Bay. Browse Torrents. Audio Music, Audio books, Sound clips, FLAC, Other Video Movies, Movies DVDR, Music videos, Movie clips, TV shows, Handheld, HD - Movies, HD - TV.
If Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu Plus are any indication, torrenting isn’t quite the destructive force many groups have made it out to be. Torrenting is a popular alternative to legal streaming, buying and renting, but the abundance of poor quality torrents coupled with the unfriendly method of acquiring movies and TV shows through torrenting has kept a majority of viewers glued to their TVs, browsers and tablets. If watching a ripped movie was as easy as logging into Netflix, would the tides turn in the favor of torrents? The creators of Popcorn Time want to find out.
TorrentFreak has drawn our attention to what could be the most legitimate threat to the online rental and streaming services yet: Popcorn Time, an open source project which makes “the experience of watching torrent movies as simple as possible.” If you live in a country where downloading copyrighted material from third-party sources is illegal, Popcorn Time could be a risky proposition, but the ease of use is astounding.
Find a movie you want to see on the surprisingly well-designed UI, pick a streaming resolution and hit play. Once you’re done watching, the file will be stored on your computer until you restart, at which point all traces of the torrent will be “gone for good.”
“We don’t expect legal issues,” says Sebastian, a designer from Argentina. “We don’t host anything, and none of the developers makes any money. There are no ads, no premium accounts, and no subscription fees or anything like that. It’s an experiment to learn and share.”
If Popcorn Time can stay out of trouble, Netflix and its ilk might have some proper competition from the torrent side of the market. Even if the torrents on the service are taken down, the program itself would likely remain intact. The team doesn’t have any plans for a mobile conversion, but the desktop is being updated regularly. We can’t recommend that you try Popcorn Time for yourself, but it’s a fascinating development in the torrent conversation.
UPDATE: Altered some language to better clarify that BitTorrent is in no way associated with Popcorn Time or its designers.

Anyone?
Do you keep up with ones currently airing, downloading them each week as a new episode of a series airs in the UK?
I use thebox.bz. What shows are you currently watching?
I guess this thread pertains to those living in the US.
I'm sure Brits also download US television series.
With the time difference, I've actually been able to download a show that's just aired in Britain, and watch it at the same time (albeit US time) that they watched it -- ie, a show airing at 10PM in the UK, is 5PM US time. Torrent goes up before 10PM US time. You're watching nearly the same time of night as those across the pond watched it. God bless the internet!
