Title: Yesmovies

No need to torrent movies and TV shows, just stream them online here:

https://yesmovies.to/

Selection isn't bad but I guess that depends on what you're looking for. Lots or recent movies. TV show selection seems to be a bit too focused for me. I couldn't find most of the series I was interested in. Great interface but watch out for the lemons in quality. Not everything is available in HD especially if it's only recently been in the theatre but it does tell you the quality before you watch. HD only appears to be 720 so if that is important to you, you'll still need your torrents.

Ditto. I was looking for things like this for Kodi.

How does this site pay for itself? I saw no ads, no requests for money. And they may need to pay for lawyers since most of the movies are owned. Seems to be too good to be true.

My guess is that they plan to introduce ads later. I'm thinking it's fairly new (like <year old) but I don't know for sure. Apparently there are several sites like this but since Google has had takedown requests they are harder to find; usually known through word of mouth. Note that AFAIK, these type of sites don't host the material, they just provide links to it.

Now that I've started playing Kodi and Exodus and Bob plug-ins, it's even much nicer!
