Start saving for a small pc and some large hard drives. It's worth it. Or pay for a VPN and use stremio and just stream torrents.

You can also buy access to other people's Plex servers, watch anything

Fuck advertisements. I've got pihole setup as my local DNS, ublock origin on all computers. Being bombarded every minute of every day to buy shit is getting real old really fast.

Oh I got a home server setup with Jellyfin and a bunch of media already, just need to figure out the Live TV stuff (for live news, some soap operas, stuff that doesn't get torrented much) for it to be 100% complete :)

Many news channels have free streaming options. You don't have to watch the channels with ads, you know.
