IsoPlex: Popcorn time alternative maintained by Isohunt

So....what exactly is Isohunt.to? Isohunt.com was shut down and the footer of Isohunt.to says they are not affiliated with Isohunt inc. So...wouldn't it be safe to assume that Isohunt.to is just an MPAA/RIAA honeypot that's designed to snap up users of the original Isohunt who just don't notice the difference? I'd stay 50,000 miles away from them and any of their "products."

It seems more or less like a popcorn time copy. It uses the node modules peerflix (<a href="https://github.com/mafintosh/peerflix" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;mafintosh&#x2F;peerflix</a>), read-torrent (<a href="https://github.com/mafintosh/read-torrent" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;mafintosh&#x2F;read-torrent</a>) and socket-io (<a href="http://socket.io" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;socket.io</a>) for example. You can read the source code if you download the mac version and open Contents&#x2F;Resources&#x2F;app.nw inside the Isoplex package. But it is a good question why it is not on github.

FYI popcorn time is still being actively developed and is open source. <a href="https://github.com/popcorn-official/popcorn-app/" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;popcorn-official&#x2F;popcorn-app&#x2F;</a><p>it isn&#x27;t the original team but they have been maintaining it for the past few months and seem committed to keeping it alive.

Even the website layout is copied from popcorn time. Seems closed source..

I want it for music. Would be perfect for parties as an alternative to spotify, grooveshark etc.<p>Need queuing and support for a bunch of weird open formats and then we&#x27;re good to go.

I can&#x27;t find the source code. Is it even available?

This looks nice but i wonder why it is not open sourced if free.

There seems to be a singular lack of sound.

Is this legal?

Plex[0] is a pretty big media server &#x2F; player..... Very big coincidence.<p>[0]<a href="https://plex.tv/" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;plex.tv&#x2F;</a>
