Just noticed a story on Digg about an app called Popcorn Time... Bottom line, you stream torrents via the app. Downloaded and installed and the interface looks pretty much like every streaming service or site out there... Click on a flick, wait a couple of moments for the buffer and off you go. About to watch Gravity. :D

The app in in Beta and available for Mac, PC and Linux.

Have to add, my name is Greg and I approve this message.

Tried it but I think as soon as Telkom sees a torrent protocol they throttle the internet to 1kb

Yeah unfortunately with Telkom, torrents is a no go.
But I bought a few gigs from Webafrica, to use during 7pm - 10pm, and then everything else, I switch back to telkom (just till the end of the month).

I find even NTV, with Telkom is buffering.
 
Zona is a Popcorn Time Beater and a Pirate’s Dream

If Popcorn Time shook things up, Zona is going to shake them apart. Not only does Zona look as good, if not better than Popcorn TIme, it streams tens of thousands of movies and TV shows plus millions of music tracks. Did we mention switchable audio languages, subtitles and permanent downloading? What about TV show subscription, plus live TV and radio from around the world? An Android version?
