Jetflicks claimed to have more than 183,200 different television episodes.
A federal grand jury on Tuesday returned an indictment that charged eight people with conspiring to violate federal criminal copyright law by allegedly running two of the largest unauthorized streaming services in the United States, according to the U.S. Deptartment of Justice.
The service allowed its users to stream and, at times, download copyrighted TV programs without the permission of the relevant copyright owners, resulting in the loss of millions of dollars by television program and motion picture copyright owners, according to the indictment. "One of the defendants, Polo, left Jetflicks and created a competing site based in Las Vegas called iStreamItAll that at one point claimed to have 115,849 different television episodes and 10,511 individual movies," according to the Dept. of Justice. "Like Jetflicks, ISIA offered content for a regular subscription fee to viewers around the United States, and ISIA publicly asserted that it had more content than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and Amazon Prime.
