If you've been addicted to P2P downloading, you're bound to love the new Torrents Time plugin.

Torrents Time is a small open-source plugin, which integrates a Torrent client and a video player, and which allows you to stream torrent content directly in a browser.

Available for all browsers under Windows or on Mac, just install it,  and click on a link in the browser to start it.

It is now therefore possible to watch the movies directly in Google Chrome or in Firefox.

The developers of Torrents Time explain that the plug-in is made up of two parts: a Bittorrent engine based on the Libtorrent library, and a video player that uses FFmpeg technology.

The famous site The Pirate Bay has already implemented the code for Torrents Time, notably by adding a button entitled "Stream it!" »On each page presenting a file torrent sites.

I tried it quickly, and I must admit that it works quite well.

To use Torrents Time on your computer, you must first install an executable file that you will find on the torrents-time.com site. Once done, restart your browser and you can stream the torrents available at Popcorntime-online, The Pirate Bay, KickAss-Torrents, and others.

Note, that using the plug-in itself is not illegal, viewing copyrighted content is a little more tendentious.
