So I recently found about this app on the Play Store called Streamio. At first glance it looks like a simple catalog of various shows and movies and what services they're on, but through installing certain addons from within the app (I won't go into detail just in case the mods don't like this topic), you can stream literally any show or movie from any streaming provider, and it only costs 32/year for the full catalog. I mean, just look at this shit:

It's all there, commercial-free, mostly in 4K. And it's fast too. Anything I want to watch is there, streaming to my TV within seconds. And I really do mean anything, even older stuff that isn't available on any platform. There hasn't been a single show or movie I could think of that wasn't available to stream instantly.

I don't get how this works. Where is the content coming from? Why hasn't the server(s) that host it been shut down years ago over copyright violations? Why is it so much faster than torrents? What loophole is being exploited, here?

Somebody please explain.
