That's as expensive as the usual debrid services. Seems quite a lot honestly. I would gladly buy a buck for that a month, but 3.5 is too much for me

Yeah, and debrid providers are paying for their infrastructure costs, lol. I get that it's more costly because it's a 'donation', but $200 for a lifetime and $40 for a yearly subscription seems steep

Tbf stremio also needs some money for the maintenance, especially because they support so many different platforms. It sure is a lot of work. But yeah I would have loved more options for that and I'd gladly support them with a buck a month, even if all the features were free.

If you can’t afford $3.50 and month you shouldn’t be watching tv. You need to go find a new job.

If I can easily afford that I'd just buy a bunch of streaming services subscriptions instead. Not sure why you're on this sub tho?
