It's Popcorn Time!

[Jimi Hendrix]

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popcorn_Time

Popcorn Time is a multi-platform, free and open source media player. The program is intended as a free alternative to subscription-based video streaming services such as Netflix.


 This is a great media player & a great FREE alternative to NEXFLIX.

The developers included a VPN(Virtual Private Network) option to anonymize use of their clients.

 This week the feature was added to the latest 4.2 Alpha release. By clicking a lock icon users can quickly connect and disconnect the built-in protection. Although it may take some more time before a stream starts playing, it appears to work just fine

 It even has built in subtitles in 44 different languages for all media content!

 After further research.....



There are 2 versions:

3.2 Beta-  http://popcorn-time-free.com/

- This version was created by the original Devs who were encouraged to stop development

- Loads faster
- Less anonymity (privacy)
- Allow skipping ahead

4.2 Beta - http://www.time4popcorn.eu/

: This version is the result of a new Dev group who has picked up where the other left off.

- More anonymity (Security)
- Loads a bit slower (not much)
- Doesn't allow skipping ahead
- Better video quality options

 I have both versions installed in different locations. Both work just fine, but I kinda like 3.2 just a tiny bit more.

Hmmm seems that time4popcorn has a somewhat shady history:

I wouldn't try to risk it without checking the source code myself.

 For each his own.

4.2 has better security.

Ive been associated with torrents for years & never had any trouble.
