Last year we saw Popcorn Time hit the scene, offering a Netflix-like solution to pirating movies with support for PCs, Macs, Linux, and even Android. The service basically made it easy to stream movies using technology that utilized BitTorrents to get the job done. Now it looks like the same platform and technology are being utilized to bring easy streaming of high-quality p**no movies via the aptly named p**n Time.
p**n Time currently only offers support for Windows, Mac, and Linux but Android and iOS versions are expected to arrive sometime in the next week or two. Just like with Popcorn Time, don’t expect this one to be officially offered on Google Play, though you’ll be able to download it directly from p**nTime’s website.
Tech wise, there’s not much different here than with Popcorn Time: the app grabs torrent files, and then both downloads and streams the torrents on the fly.
As the service’s lead developer told VentureBeat earlier this week:
p**n Time works exactly the same as Popcorn Time does, only the content is all p**n. p**n Time users can enjoy the latest, hottest p**n movies instantly and in HD quality, with just a click of a button. Just like with Popcorn Time, the content can be cast directly to the big screen with Chromecast or Airplay.
We can’t say we are surprised to see the same Bittorent-based tech being used to make p**n consumption easier but, unlike Popcorn Time, free p**n already has a lot of competition. There are an innumerable amount of sites around these days that make it easy to watch quality p**nos for free (not that’d I know …..), though we suppose for those that actually like p**n movie for the stories (so like two or three people on the planet) some of the even higher caliber titles might be available on p**nTime that aren’t as easy to acquire elsewhere.
Considering most sites don’t require downloading or Bittorents, and instead use more traditional embedded videos for p**n watching, we can’t imagine that p**n Time will find nearly as much success among pirates as Popcorn Time has. That said, support for things like Chromecast could certainly make the platform a bit more appealing, especially if the upcoming Android app supports the feature, which we imagine it will.
