ahhhh

why stream when you can simply download?

Not sure how much this was serious, but now that you say it I do feel like there's an element of that! 💯

Some things are only available on one or the other. Live sports, for example.

Streaming. If you know of a way to download a game that hasn't been played yet, you let me know.

I think you misunderstood my question. There's a zillion links on here

For a lot of people, especially young people, their phone is the only computer they have. For those folks streaming is often the only viable option.

Also, the level of effort to stream is as simple as a good browser, uBlock Origin, and having the URL.

I'd really like to see a firefox-like browser that can download torrents and allow you to watch right in it.

FMHY is awesome, you can find links to pretty much anything there (torrent sites, DDL, guides, etc).
And unlike most other link collection sites, it is actively maintained.
