It is a sad day and year for Piracy. Soap2Day was the best of the best. So was RARBG.

Why are all these piracy sites dropping like flies? There was no warning/explanation for why they went down. Higher running/maintenance cost doesn't explain it, because why not just temporarily shut down until the bills come down? Plus, the timing is bang in the middle of the reddit protest too, which is setting my conspiracy alarms off.

No need to panic mateys, try these great alternatives:

You can also visit Movies & TV section in the Megathread for way more options.

Stremio is the best app for movies and series. I've never seen anything like it.

For not so smart people like me- can someone explain how/what role AI plays in all of this?

[–] LlamaSutra@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

AI can search multiple things at the same time really fast. It can also detect patterns super quick. It probably is doing something like looking for multiple users accessing high bandwidth or something. I dunno. This might not even be happening. Just a guess 😆

Any of these sites allow f12/ inspect elements? Or anyone know ways around that inspect element block? I used to grab all the 720p from soap.... So sad!

If you're just interested in having a download button, try Stremio.

thanks man. Unforunately torrents are a no go for my ISP need VPNs. I must have grabbed thousands of movies via F12/ inspect element for years with soap. I guess no one is serving content like that any more. :( super sad
