    It almost seems like Paramount’s execs want you to pirate their content. The other thing that frustrates me that they’ve been doing is sending PC users extremely low-quality streams just to spite anybody who payed to view their content instead of torrenting it. I guess the line of thought is that this will make it harder for pirates to capture HD-quality streams, but that’s not stopping them so all it does is make it so that the pirates are the only ones who can watch it in HD on a PC.

    Not sure if they fixed this but there was also a problem with episodes randomly missing back in the CBS All-Access days. I especially remember Menagerie and Cage were mysteriously gone when they released that episode of Discovery where they revisit Talos IV.

    I’m rambling but my point is that CBS/Paramount’s stupid myopic decisions only drive people to torrent sites because the version that you download is a far superior product to what they’re streaming.
