Wish there was a way to securely stream torrent files without the risk of your IP address being exposed? Now you can with Put.io and Roku!


"put.io is a private cloud storage service and BitTorrent client combined"


Movies and television shows are easy to watch on a Roku or just about any Android or Apple product with Put.io What is Put.io you ask? Think of it as a paid cloud service which you can watch torrents on. Torrents!?!?!?!?! I know, many of you think Torrents is a bad word. Really it isn’t. With Put.io, you don’t download torrents, you stream them. 

When using put.io, your IP address is never exposed in torrent swarms. Rather it is Put.io’s IP address that is exposed instead and they just ignore any phishing attempts. Also, when you stream video files through Roku your stream goes over a secure https connection. Besides, Torrents, Put.io will also let you stream video podcasts, and many other video and audio files. Put.io gives you access to many TV shows just after airing commercial free.





What end users have to say about Put.io


"Just tried out put.io. Damn those file transfers are quick. No more waiting to download and transfer to sd card. Thanks for the hookup!!!"



We highly recommend using Put.io for legal open source torrents or personal media content.  If you decide to stream copyright torrent files, be sure to check copyright laws as they apply in your country. 


Extremely Fast File Transfers with Put.io


After you choose something to add onto your Put.io cloud drive, it just takes a few seconds for it to load. You can also easily convert avi videos to a Roku friendly mp4 format by simply pressing a button. This is only needed if the file is not already in mov, mkv or mp4 format. Once your file has loaded, just sit back and enjoy your TV show or movie, or favorite podcasts without any buffering (depending on your internet speed). It works very similar to Netflix with (Play, Pause, Rewind, and Fast Forward) controls. If you use the Put.io channel on Roku and stop a program half way through, it will even save your place for the next viewing session.
