There's a new, free streaming service offering limitless television shows and the latest movies, but it just might put you in the sights of the entertainment industry. Infamous pirate download site, The Pirate Bay, recently rolled out a streaming service that is currently in beta.

The new streaming service isn't coming directly from TPB. Instead, the torrent-centric site has added support for Torrents Time, a browser plugin that lets you stream torrents from your browser. To use TPB's new streaming feature a user must have the Torrents Time plugin installed. Then it's smooth sailing on the pirate-ridden digital-streaming seas. Torrents Time even supports casting to a television.

The Pirate Bay's new streaming service is just a few clicks away.

The impact on you at home: Getting Torrents Time set up is easy enough; however, the plugin comes with the same issues surrounding any of the numerous Popcorn Time desktop clients. Even though you can't see what's going on, Torrents Time effectively turns your browser into a torrent client. In other words, while you are suffering through the latest grainy cam of Star Wars: The Force Awakens your browser is sharing those bits with other users—turning you into an unwitting pirate distributor.

Stream everything, but for how long?

The Pirate Bay's streaming feature appears to cover pretty much everything in the movies and television show categories. Other potential streaming sections, such as audiobooks, music, and porn are not supported.

Torrents Time is an interesting idea and, as Popcorn Time has already proven, peer-to-peer networking via torrents is an effective way to distribute media. But this service is illegal and will no doubt go down the same path that other services inspired by Popcorn Time have and eventually disappear.
