As I said, its not that way for me, because my hard-drive is right there, I plug it in, move to the right folder, which is where I want it, where I know it.

Those "oh so easy" applications are bloatware, need sign-ins, money, need crappy mobile/console interfaces, and very often still dont have what I want to watch (language, captions, resolution or even "nah, we dont have the rights to this series (anymore), because we rented them to someone else, even though we have initially created tge whole thing")

imagine I want to make a meme or gif out of star wars, VLC or Windows Movie Editor or whatnot is just better than trying to film Neftlix.

I will state again: for me "pirating" and locally storing content is the significantly easier option.

It seems my situation is different, sometimes I want to watch some movie. I know which. I spin up my external Harddrive and BAM! I AM watching MY movie. If I dont have a Movie or whatelse downloaded and it needs to be now not later, then its always very frantic, because, well streaming services are a bit crap.

Look guy, Poncho, This really isn't a problem. The internet is supposed to help you solve problems, normally one would not like these types of questions (as they could be solved by reading the manual - the problem begins when you get the same question everyday) but currently this niche here is absolutely more fun than just banning someone for this question. And thinking of the future, anyone with the sense of looking it up before asking the question has the possibility of reaching this genuinly helpful thread.

As far as this here is concerned it has been enjoyable as well as informative in several ways.

The credits couldnt theoretically magically appear?

I mean they wouldn't be infringing on copyright or whatevs since they are just a list of names. and additionally most people on these lists would corroborrate the existance of most other people there (which doesnt make it perfect, but better)
