It’s as clean and as simple as it can get, a/v-quality was great, as it is curated and it’s nice not having to skim through 12 versions on pb, maybe check screenshots and comments, just to start watching your 720p flick.
Nothing has come out of it until 2019 (the time of this update) though. Update 3: The developers launched Butter Project in 2015 in an attempt to create Popcorn Time but without the legal implications. First previews released, you can grab them here. Update 2: The project got resurrected, new clients coming soon. Since it was an Open Source project, there is still the chance that someone else will fork it and continue to work on it. Update: The developers of the application have shut it down, and it appears that it cannot be used anymore to establish a connection. If all movie studios would create an app like Popcorn Time in a joint venture and offer it to a worldwide audience for a subscription fee, I'd sign up for it immediately if the price is right.įor now, it is a proof of concept that demonstrates how a good movie streaming app that is available to a worldwide audience could look like. While it demonstrates streaming done right, users of it can get in legal troubles as torrent files are being used for that which may be monitored by rights-holders or companies that monitor BitTorrent traffic. Now, the main problem is that using the app is not legal in most countries due to the sources it uses and the lack of distribution rights. Plus, and that happens rarely, I'd gladly pay for it. While it could and probably will grow over time, for instance to add movies to favorites or mark them as watched, it is near perfect in its current state. From its vast assortment of available movies to the concentration on features that matter, such as subtitles or qualities, it is all there. Popcorn Time demonstrates how easy movie streaming services can be. The process should not take longer than a couple of seconds on fast connections, but if you are on a slow connection, it may take more time than that. If streaming movies via BitTorrent is illegal in your country, then what you do with the app is too. Note: The program may not be legal in your country. Popcorn Time uses torrent files to make available the movies which means that it can take some time before the actual movie starts to play. When you click on the watch it now button, a buffering video progress bar is displayed. This includes a short plot description, if subtitles are available, the quality it is available in, its health, and the playing time. When you click on a movie, information about it are displayed. No matter what you enter, the program will return a clean list of matching movies to you. Do the same for Star Trek and you get all Star Trek movies from the very first in 1979 to the most recent in 2013. Search for Star Wars, and you get all six episodes of he series.
