Subscene’s Demise is No Surprise But Millions of App Users Face Disruption

After reporting that the site hasn't been financially viable for years, the operator of Subscene, one of the internet's most important subtitle sites, has pulled the plug. The plan had been known for some time and at least two, mostly complete backups, have been acquired by separate archiving teams. A 90GB torrent is currently being shared all over the world, but for international movie and TV show app users that rely on Subscene for subtitles, chaos may prevail for a while.
