Torrents Time Streams Torrents in Your Browser During Download

Torrents are a convenient way to download videos, but they are not as convenient as streaming. Luckily, Torrents Time is a browser plugin that lets you stream torrents right in your browser.

The plugin itself only allows you to stream torrents, but you still need the content to stream. However, Pirate Bay has stepped up to add beta support to its site. Now you can go to Pirate Bay and stream torrents directly from the site if you have the plugin installed.

Torrent times work in most browsers (Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer). The company seems to be monetizing by offering a paid VPN service if you’re wondering how an app designed in no small part for piracy makes money. This is a reasonable concern.

However, this is obviously accompanied by a lot of the usual disclaimers: Pirate Bay contains a ton of illegal content. The site itself has a sketchy legal history. Running browser plug-ins from third party sources that violate copyright law may not be a good idea. However, the concept of streaming torrents is very exciting on a technological level, which is why we trust Lifehacker readers with common sense when using it.
