I did one of these for Hulu (https://github.com/chris124567/hulu) a while back. It didn't take very long to write. Most of these programs are just using the pywidevine library along with some key that's been leaked (if you know how to navigate Github search you can find one in a couple of minutes) and then integrating the streaming site's API. I wrote mine in Go because I got sick of the pywidevine hegemony and I felt it was unnecessarily complicated. The annoying thing is that key revocations are happening pretty frequently now. It's another one of those pointless cat and mouse games.

> torrenting today is as good as the experience of buying music on a physical medium in the 90s You meant to say "it's much better than buying experience has ever been". You throw an RSS feed into your torrent client once and get desktop or email notifications when a new episode is downloaded and ready to play. If there's enough disk space, you can add whole categories in there and have hundreds of shows available lo…
This is not a good experience. I cannot order a box like an Apple TV and just hook it up to my new TV and go. It’s never as easy as anyone says it is, there’s always more steps involved than logging into iTunes and/or subscribing to some service with my credit card. Plus there’s always the chance of a lawsuit hanging over my head.
For a tech illeterare person maybe. using `docker-compose up` to start a preconfigured sonarr, radarr, transmission with VPN , Plex or jellyfin is almost all you need. the only addition is getting a VPN service such as mullvad... If that's too involved for a software developer I'd call that person pretty incompetent, honestly.

#203Can we just stop the shitshow with DRM? I have NEVER encountered a TV show/movie that I could't rip using a torrent either on public p2p sites or a private tracker. But I have seen a lot of my non-technical friends and family having a degraded experience, who pay for their streaming services every month. It was either because they were using a browser or device which was deemed unworthy of full quality streaming by t…
Yeah, I don't know in what world DRM is supposed to stop people ripping stuff, it only seems to hurt paying users, ultimately if it comes out of a screen you can always capture the output, no amount of DRM will ever prevent this so why bother . The irony is that as a Linux user (only SD for us), and a user with poor internet and thus shitty streaming speed, DRM pushes me towards torrenting everything I "buy" from the…

There is a possible reason: insurance.
Once insurers are involved it drives behaviours in media production that may at first not appear to make sense -- protecting content in it's various forms leads into technical constrains however it can just as easily lead into "theatre".

#204> Hi! My name is WVDUMP. I am Leaking the CDM to burn it & punish few idiots that think themselves as dicord lords :smile: Why do so many people doing illegal/shady shit online use Discord? You might as well be using Facebook at the point.
They use Discord for illegal stuff because they already use it for tons of other things. Sure it's a bad idea, but they don't care (and with all honesty, Discord support doesn't seem to either).
Discord - a lack of agreement or harmony
Synonyms for discord
conflict, disaccord, discordance, discordancy, disharmony, dissension (also dissention), dissent, dissidence, dissonance, disunion, disunity, division, friction, infighting, inharmony, schism, strife, variance, war, warfare
Seems pretty fitting? :)

I think that the end goal for the media companies is to add watermarking to all media and require watermark detection on all video-recording equipment, to include cameras. This would be terribly bad, but I think it is technically possible.

Jellyfin's Syncplay and Roku app work as well, making group video watching easy

You're mixing terms up, you don't rip using a torrent or any other p2p protocol. You download things. You know how Netflix only allows you to stream 1080p in most browsers? That's because they don't support the DRMs content providers use for high-res content. You'll see webrips all the time with 1080p because someone can just record their screen and call it a day, but the 4k content is harder since the DRM prevents e…
Oh sorry, English is not my native language and I had to rephrase a few times, totally missed that.
>You'll see webrips all the time with 1080p because someone can just record their screen and call it a day.
I've checked my tracker and practically all TV shows from Netflix that are in 4K can be downloaded in 4K. And I am 99% sure they are not screen caps, for example the entire second season of The Witcher was released 17 December at 09:01, and my tracker had it ready to download at 12:26 at 4K with 3 audio tracks and 2 subtitle tracks. The runtime of this season on imdb is about 8 hours, so it would be impossible to screencap, which means they had a bypass for the DRM ready ahead of time.
Of course these are just examples that I made up and I would never enter or use such filthy and illegal websites.
And for the mobile and smart TV experience there is Plex. It even has features which aren't possible with the legitimate services, such as "Watch Together" which allows you to watch stuff with friends over the internet.

A practical problem DRM will always have is that the full DRM chain that tries to include everything in the path down to the cables, that involves too many actors not to break. Keys will inevitably leak left and right, and you'll always be able to find some sort of cable and capture card setup that ignores DRM.
About the watermark scheme, if it was standardized for inclusion in any video-recording equipment, then the standard would leak and people would learn how to neuter it. Or people would flash their camera's firmware to patch out the detection code.
There's simply too many places where the scheme cannot be secure, by design. It's hard to stop finding weak points in the DRM scheme.
