If (and it is an if) NitroXenon was targeted, it is definitely not the style of the MPA (or the Alliance For Creativity and Entertainment) to offer cash for favors. While that’s a distinct possibility (the MPA and its associates have reached into the Asia-Pacific region before to threaten developers of similar apps) there are no clear signs that happened here.Įqually, the rumor that NitroXenon was paid off by the studios to shut down the application is almost certainly untrue. From pushing regular updates to the app as it grew (the last was around May), in recent months its developer has been mostly absent, with users requesting information but very little coming back.Īs is often the case when services shut down abruptly, speculation builds that maybe the developer has been subjected to legal pressure. The big question, of course, is why NitroXenon decided to close Terrarium TV down but again, the decision didn’t really come as a surprise. TorrentFreak reached out to Nic for comment but she preferred not to add anything further. Thanking users for their support over the years, NitroXenon singled out Reddit moderator ‘Nic’ for his her support. But it is really time for me to move on to other projects.” I am going to shut down Terrarium TV, forever,” he wrote.

“It has always been a great pleasure to work on this project. In a notification pushed to Terrarium TV users last night, NitroXenon explained that his days of working on the app are over. With only Showbox and a handful of other applications getting anywhere close to its volume of active users, Terrarium TV became the go-to app for Android users looking for a Netflix-style fix. Instead, the software pulled in content from file-hosting sites in a similar way to Kodi addons, but with an almost non-existent learning curve.Ĭreated by a developer who identified as Hong Kong-based Peter Chan (aka NitroXenon), Terrarium TV enjoyed a meteoric rise to stardom over the past couple of years. Inspired by the simplicity of Popcorn Time, Terrarium TV eschewed the use of torrents as a supply protocol. Perhaps the most impressive in recent years has been Terrarium TV. Most can be downloaded and installed in seconds and are extremely simple to use.

Referred to generally as APKs (taken from the installation format used by Android devices), these applications provide direct access to huge amounts of movie and TV show content. While Kodi and its dazzling array of addons grabs most mainstream piracy headlines, much simpler options lie just below the surface.
