EU considers banning video streaming services from using geoblocking

[Lawnchairman]

This would save on VPN costs.

Make this happen. Geo-blocking is outdated and just a method for Dino's to keep control.

Unsurprising most of football and sporting leagues are very upset and worried about this.

Yup, another vote for DL'ing instead of Streaming.

Again I don't care what others may think, I don't pander to cumrades.

Downloading is great provided you have the hard drive space, which is very limited here. Also finding content is not as easy as it was, to find, when I started to stream every thing.

I would be too, if I had my bread buttered on both sides and caviar on the side, like they do.

On your 1st point watch & delete. Only keep the good stuff, stuff you would actually want to rewatch (how I roll).

On your 2nd point it is relative though it does help I am not averse to to even super old (good) stuff.

YMMV.

Watch and delete is the only option I have. Which works well generally.

I don’t mind the old, good stuff either, but find it a problem watching it at less than 720p, especially if the content is grainy and of low quality.

I was surprised when I did a search on YouTube and found some decent quality old stuff there.
