Popcorn Time: Windows and Mac versions get minor updates as iOS gets a major promise

article published on 23 December, 2014

The team behind Popcorn Time has made a few changes to their Mac and Windows versions of the software and made a strong promise for the upcoming iOS update. First, the Windows version has been updated to beta 5.1: After learning about how awesome beta 5.0 is, but also what's not working so well in it, we worked hard on solving the issues and we believe we managed to fix many bugs that ...

DEATH to this program. Free movies my ass. Any kind of free flow of illicit content to this degree is ALWAYS too good to be true........as is the case here.

Network engineer here, been there and done this program several times since inception.

Two (2) deal killers here and reasons why anyone keeping this program on their computer and/or using it is an absolute GOOF with no regard for your own privacy or safety surfing the web.

This program works using the K-lite codec pack which it installs w/o notice. There are two (2) viruses in this. Trojans.

This program is a constant stream from/to the torrents and is being watched. Received DMCA notice from ATT Uverse in Chicagoland for watching the crappy "Selfie" show which was cancelled anyway. Who woulda thunk?

Peerblock has been a life saver to me for torrenting and unfortunately it cripples this program's ability to effectively upload/download.

And "VPNing" your internet connection is not only ridiculous, but it's a pain in the ass, unnecessary, costly, neurotic and foolish to engage for one program.

Popcorn Time is dead!

Don't hold back hearme0 my friend...tell us how you REALLY feel about this garbage....errr program.
hahaha

I was actually thinking of testing it out, but after that interesting tirade I think I'll let it slide, thanx bud!
Also, I do not like K-Lite, I have Shark007's pack. He's a good friend and I've never had an issue with anything in the 7+ years of using his pack, although there was an issue with his advert guys slapping unwanted shite into his pack without his knowledge, but he fixed that as soon as he heard about it.
Gotta get paid for his work somehow but he also clearly states how to install without any of the extra stuff so he does care about his users.

BTW, Happy New Year my friend and this also goes out to all here at AD!
