RSS is a pretty quick thing to learn - just get a Google Reader account, and then the little wave-like shapes on various sites will set up your feeds if you click on them once you have subscribed to Google Reader.

Thank you. I know how to use RSS and torrents separately, but I hadn’t seen a dedicated TV feed like that. How helpful!

Do people inside the industry look askance at file sharing, or is it just the lobbies? Is it indiscreet in professional and creative circles to admit to watching television via torrent?

I use NetNews Wire to manage RSS feeds. I grab the torrent feed from http://tvrss.net/feeds/. Is it the RSS feed you’re having trouble with? It’s not an easy technology yet. You’ll have to look around the web for someone to explain how to use it. And then you’ll have to learn to download.

I totally agree. People are willing to pay, the networks have to make the content available to them.

This is the reason TV networks have got to catch up. I’ve been buying Skins from iTunes. But guess what, they only have nine episodes on there. If they had the rest, I’d buy them. But now, the only way to get them is to download them illegally. C’mon you guys, don’t you want my money?

I’m with Lex. Torrents are pretty much what keep me alive. I think regardless of what online outlet you use to get shows, speed is the true difference maker - I have to go to a friend’s place if I want to get a really good connection.

I think I just make take a gander at “The Hollowmen”.

I’m just glad we have options.

What’s your setup for this feed? I’d like a similar subscription, but it’s not obvious to me how to set it up.

Torrents are FAR from outdated and quality is now everything. I can “get” my HD (read 720p) 1.4G episode of say, Heroes, in a couple of minutes on my hard drive. Free.
File hosting services suck as it rarely dl at your full speed (fiber optics ftw).
I am of course not talking about public torrent website where everyone hits and runs like Mininova, but rather private website where users have to keep a UL/DL ratio.
Guess how I watch my TV.

I think Torrents are outdated already. File hosts with premium memberships (six bucks a month) and sites with links give you the latest House, Dr. Who etc. literally minutes after the show has aired - and with a fast cable connection a whole episode is downloaded in a matter of two, three minutes.

It’s brutal. Seriously.
