The downside is that sometimes you get really bad quality, like some guy filming it in a cinema with terrible focus, contrast and sound and people walking in and out...
Only if you watch very recent movies that aren't released to dvd or streaming yet. That's always the case with all pirate websites
The real value of those sites (and there's a ton of them with mostly the same content), is that pretty much everything is there.
No fucking about with JustWatch to find which of your services (if any) has it, only to find you can rent it for £15. You just type what you were after and watch it.
And then switch to another steam and fuck about with the subtitles again because sometimes movies cut out halfway through, or the sound goes out of sync.
Don't forget the part where JustWatch says it's on Paramount+ so you go looking and it's not there. Now you're right back where you started, but you've lost 10 minutes because the P+ app is complete garbage.
I've never subbed to P+, because every advert I've seen for it has somehow made me want it even less.
