I never used any, what makes “tubi” special?
Heard someone else describe it as “They buy whatever movies they can get for cheap and as a result it is a goldmine for weird obscure stuff”
Yes exactly. Theres some good stuff on there if you dig. Watched the movie Cemetery Man on there.
Its only available in the US, Canada and UK but I just use a VPN
its free, it has ads but like so do some of the paid tiers of the other services, at least the whole experience is free. They dont have a huge selection but lots of interesting things there. its got all the old doctor who episodes on there
Wait WHAT a service that has classic who?
Unfortunately, we’re not currently available in your area.
Aw sad.
Edit: Oop you already mentioned that in the other comment.
What the hell is tubi?
free streaming service owned by FOX (not the disney one, the one that was formed out of the assets that disney didnt buy) that has a bunch of stuff on there, a lot of obscure stuff but also cool stuff like classic doctor who and farscape and old shows like everybody hates chris. idk i just like that its free and at times more convenient than pirating because i already always use a vpn
in May it was the most watched streaming service in the US, beating even Disney plus.
When I’m looking for some obscure horror movie and can’t find it, tubi usually pulls through. I enjoy it as well!
Also no ads using ublock. Minimal when not using one, and they let you know when they’re coming.
Sounds like they are in the phase of trying to get their share of the market before enshittification ensues, watch it while it’s hot!
no one stays. torrent everything.
I cannot describe how good it was when I first launched Stremio and discovered you could find virtually anything, from the extremely recent, still in cinemas, to old historical stuff. I just watched Furiosa, then rolled that into Fury Road, then went back and watched the original Mad Max franchise, all from the same interface. It was almost as easy as it would have been on a regular streaming service, and I never had any question in my mind that it would all be available.
The fact that Tubi exists basically applies clown makeup to all the other streaming services. Like, Tubi shows me ads as or less frequently as the payed services and I don’t need to make an account to use it. That’s a huge plus for me personally as I’m tired of account bloat.
It doesn’t have every show or movie ever but no streaming services does. Its original shows are totally uninteresting to me, but that’s also true of 95% of new original shows on other streaming services. I ain’t about to shell out 8 dollars a month and sit through 10 minutes of ads every hour just to watch a couple of prestige shows.
And there are plenty of options for watching everything, for free, without ads, assuming you’re willing to jump through a couple hoops.
How can installing software and downloading compatible file types be seen as jumping through hoops?
Nice try tubi marketing team
