What's reliable access? I mean, I've found that illegal streams are super reliable and require less effort than an average person thinks. For the past 4-5 years, I've been able to watch every single game I've wanted without paying, and usually in HD. On my part, I think I had to keep track of maybe 2-3 different websites to accomplish that, so hardly some elite level of IT expertise.
I'm actually shocked when people talk about difficulty finding streams. Google alone will yield instant, legitimate results. I suppose an ad-blocker is a must, but then I can't comprehend that someone in this day and age would be using internet at all without an ad-blocker. It's like driving without being buckled in. It's so 1986.
