Tech's broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis.

I use WebTorrent nowadays, since it allows you to stream torrents. But before that, I also used qBittorrent, great application.

Qbit also lets you stream torrents, you just have to 'download in sequential order'.

Oh didn’t know that, thanks!
