I'm currently downloading a show that is on a service to which I subscribe (lemdro.id)

I have a Galaxy Tab S7 and for a trip to Spain I downloaded some stuff to watch on the flight. When I got on the plane none of the stuff downloaded on Disney+ would play. Maybe an issue with downloading to the SD card? I don't know, but regardless Disney offers SD card as a download destination so they should make sure it is working.

So now I'm here pirating a show that should be available to me through a service I pay for. Gabe was right, piracy is a service problem.

Also, I pay for 4k streaming but because of compression or something else they are definitely not sending me 4k content. I was watching a movie on Netflix that I had forgot I pirated. Both were 4K but the quality of the pirated one was far superior.

Youtube has that too where it says 1080p but actually it's potato quality.

I've noticed a new resolution setting: 1080p Premium HD Enhanced Bitrate.

So yeah, 1080p confirmed potato. Upgrade to new potatoless 1080p now!

I think I'll just upgrade to sailing the high seas rather than paying these clowns
