All are loaded by default in the Settings panel

Keep in mind mckie41 is a user, not part of the team :)

Also, have you checked out the app from the US/UK/anywhere where Netflix is supported?

Using movie/series marketing materials to promote links to Netflix, Hulu and iTunes - I don't think that's infringement in any way.

Also, we cannot control what OTHER add-ons appear in the app. If we receive complains we'd be happy to stop them.

We're trying to build the next Plex, not the next Popcorn Time.

Otherwise good points about the industry, but that's not our war to fight :)

If you test it out, you'll find out. It's much easier to setup & use.

Besides the usability and ease of use, it's pretty much the same concept :)

Plex cannot solve these issues easily, because of it's technical design, the add-ons system / concept itself and the server architecture that is so important for their users

Think of Stremio as a possible Plex for the masses.

Stremio is a 100% legal, unlike Popcorn Time it's not designed and distributed only for infringement use cases.

Of course, just like Plex, you can use torrent add-ons with it.

Something to point out is that we do suggest to the users add-ons which are popular in the area, so it makes any experience very streamlined.

Both, depending on what add-ons you have activated.

When you don't have any activated, it relies on local indexing.

On the other hand, the default add-ons suggest to you links to iTunes/Netflix/etc.

There are third-party add-ons that use torrents, those can be shown in the product if they are popular in your area.

You can read the TOS if you like (strem.io/tos), but in general the software is using third-party "services" which provide content and metadata. Currently, we run the metadata service, and the content comes from a third-party service which aggregates torrents.

The straight answer is "yes, it is legal" but this is about Stremio itself and not the services and how you use them.

Currently all services for the product are enabled by default, we will add an UI enable/disable/add very soon.

Hello, Ivo Georgiev here.

I am the author of this software along with my co-founder Dimo Stoyanov.

As I assume you know Popcorn Time is based on peerflix, which I contributed on right after it started as a part of our development on Stremio (formerly Cinematic), which started in 2012.

Besides that, there are no relations between the products.

As to why is it paid - the product is much more powerful both in terms of content (automatically scraped) and in terms of features (what you're actually paying for).

Hope you give it a try. Best, Ivo

@kappaloris: I have never taken grades as something important, what I wanted to express is that this is my only official way to prove something to a "great" university. And I want to be in such a place in order to meet extraordinary people.

As for essays and recommendations - I can write great essays and I have already started the process of collecting recommendations.

@caw: Helpful information, thanks.

Very beautiful. What API does it use for getting tv series info?
