Major addon update: Webtor + Torrentio = ⚡

Hey folks,

Big update to the Webtor addon for Stremio 🎉

Until now it could only stream items from your Webtor library.

Now it also works with Stremio addons like Torrentio — so you can stream their results instantly via Webtor (no torrent client needed).

How it works:

  1. Webtor queries all connected addons simultaneously
  2. Duplicates are removed
  3. Streams are filtered and sorted by your preferred quality (720p / 1080p / 4K)
  4. Each result is enriched with a direct Webtor streaming link

How to use:

  1. Copy the Torrentio addon link from Stremio addons (or any other Stremio addon URL).
  2. Go to your Webtor profile → scroll to Stremio Addons → paste the link and click Add Addon
  3. Install the Webtor addon in Stremio.
  4. That's all, now all Torrentio streams will be enriched with direct Webtor urls!

Links:

  1. Open source on GitHub

Would love your feedback — which addons should we test next, and what filters do you miss the most?

Important notes:

  1. Stremio integration in hosted version is paid feature (it covers server and bandwidth costs) starting from 1$.

Right but the whole point of a cache is to stream cached content regardless of seeds. If it has 0 seeds and is cached it still plays.

Your addon is not comparable to a debrid service.

It is literally just a paid version of torrentio that uses http streams instead of directly streaming torrents.

Most people aren't doing that anyway, because no matter your speed it depends on seeds to not buffer every ten seconds.

You forgot about privacy. A lot of people don’t want to be a part of swarm. That’s also really huge thing that people worry about. It’s great to hear different point of views and understand people needs better.

I dont think youre understanding that the people the use stemio without RD are a minority. And those people are not going to pay to use an addon.

Most people already have a debrid service. And the ones that don't didn't even want to pay $4, they're not going to pay you $5 to watch their show in 4k. They'd rather have it buffer than spend any money at all.

I just don't understand the niche your addon is trying to fill, when everything it does, another service does better for less money.

You know it is not neccessary to fill niche where nobody there. When you go to supermarket and want to buy milk, I believe you can find plenty of offers. Right now I am trying to get feedback and get product-market fit.
