Oh and I disabled RD. Nadaš¢
Opposite for me. No 4k and less links. Started using Premiumize about 3 hours ago. Still have RealDebrid and doing compares.

So is the death bell been rang for RD? That seemed like an ominous post. I havenāt been able to stream anything. First it would give me uncached Torrents, now nothing, Iām getting no returns on current shows, older shows and current or past seasons.

Well, Iām a little confused about people troubles because I just watch 2 episodes of Gold Rush on my Streamio on RD feeds. Both played flawlessly.

I jumped in on the PM Black Friday promo earlier today. $109 for 2 years is a good offer. For the fearless, the 3 yr deal is even better.
As with anything, no one ever knows how long a good thing lasts, but PM has certain aspects that differentiate itself.
- Based in a different country. Some say Belgium. Others say Malaysia, Belize,ā¦but not France!
- VPN friendly, at least with Shark.
- Comes with 1tb cloud storage.
- Itās own baked in VPN.
- Flexible payment options.
- They have a referral system also.
- Been in service for 13 years.
Things that are notableā¦
- Streams take longer than RD to load. This may be due to influx of high sign on traffic today.
- PM uses a āFair Useā allowance system. You get 1000 points to start. Each 1gb of traffic used burns 1 point. At the end of each day, you get 30 points back. You can never gain more than 1000 points. This is different than RD - more like using Orion.
- During my use this evening, I found the scrappers produced just as many results as RD. This applied to 4K and 1080p sources. In somes cases, I felt more - however, this may be due to RD shutting down.
- I found that the number of failed playbacks on some sources are about on par with RD fails.
- Integration with my frequently used APKs are as seamless and easy as RD. No different. Device pairing is slightly different but just as easy.
- CS response is quite good, with Cody responding quickly on reddit channel.
- Your streaming performance can vary depending on which server you select, similar to VPN (different from RD). You can individually speed test each server to select the one that performs best for you. I found the default Auto selection to be less effective than custom choosing the best performing server manually.
Overall, my switch to Premiumize was easy and seems very promising. In the early observations, I find it to be as good as RD albeit more expensive - but easy to pay. I believe their CC and PayPal payment portal is US based and offers less challenges of payment fail than the RD system (especially with AMAZON pay gone).
Iām hoping streaming response improves in the upcoming week or two.
In the endā¦I will miss RD. Much of what I am today and what Iāve learned is accredited to RD being there. Iām saddened that RD couldnāt continue to dodge those bullets as it has so effectively for all these years.

Premiumize working but slow loading times as well and I donāt use a VPN. Their servers must be overloaded.

Yeah - I saw that some RD sources were still working, but I observed MANY fail to play or errored out.
As the night went on, I found less and less RD sources are even showing up as opposed to early afternoon.
Itās like a dying heartbeat.

Formally, they state unlimited devices can be paired within the same household network.
Similar to RD TOS policy.

No love for Easynews? Itās not great but pretty reasonably priced and safe. Streams took longer to start than RD but still good. EN always had links to more older, obscure stuff too.
Torbox is new so currently it is available in POV addon. Umbrella addon is going to add it. Itās already available for Stremio and will be available in Torrentio soon. Since Torbox is from South Africa, many RD subscribers are jumping ship to Torbox as they fear other debrid services which are from Europe may soon follow the RD rules.
I read all these info on Reddit and Torbox discord. Torbox was oversubscribed after RD news so they are adding more servers by Monday.
For Black Friday, irās only $24 with multiple ips allowed, so better than any other debrid services. And they provide free Usenet in Pro plan.

Trying all debrid with the free trail. So far it stinks. No 4k links and sometimes no links whatsoever. Was trying to finish watching Django Unchained and not a single link with and without VPN. How can I pay for something that doesnāt work. 0 sources for Peteās sake. Plenty of movies like that. Looks like Iāll have to give premiumize a shot but not tonight. Iām sure everyone is flocking there. RD links are still working on Cinema HD. Donāt know how long though.

You can get a free trial with PM also if a test drive is important to you before a commit.

Just a thought but how about Kodi Burst. I tried it for a couple of hours and liked it very much. Just a thought.

I am in Missouri USA and my real debrid quit for kodi. I switched to premiumize and the links were freezing up all night. This does suck. Seems like they went for the most used platform first. Prolly gonna go down the list at some point. Hopefully not.
