I Use These Free Tools to Stream Old TV Shows That Aren’t on Any Major Platform
1 min read
Summary
Several platforms enable viewers to watch older TV shows that are not available on mainstream media platforms.
YouTube is a well-known platform where users can search for specific episodes of older shows.
However, it faces ongoing challenges with copyright infringement due to the fact that it hosts a significant number of user uploads.
Consequently, it has developed a somewhat ambiguous legal status, despite continuing to host legal content.
The Internet Archive is a website specifically focused on archiving shows from the past, and it too faces challenges with copyrights, but it tends to remove infringing material more quickly than YouTube.
Plex is another platform that enables users to create their own libraries of older shows by connecting with other users who have uploaded their own physical copies.
Pluto TV, Tubi, the Roku Channel, Shout Factory TV, and Popcornflix are also worthwhile options for viewers seeking old shows.
