How to watch Season 4 (No Spoilers)

[Moonlight Sapphire 11]

I am super excited for Season 4 which starts in less then an hour! But alas I don't have cable. In the past I watched season 3 on Youtube. But I do believe this cheating Hasbro out of it's views and giving it to someone who doesn't even own the content, so I plan to never do that again. I have Netflix but I would have to wait for three months before season 4 comes out! This would leave me out of the brony herd for sure. So I did some research and I think I can buy episodes on Youtube from Hasbro channel. I only have one concern, if I buy episodes from Hasbro channel would they come in HD (at least 720p)? All their previews of their previous episodes are in 480p. I was wondering if that was only for the previews. As a huge fan of the show I want to see the ponies in HD!  I hoping to watch the first episode Sunday night. So if you have any advice I will be most grateful.

Do what I do, watch the episodes on YouTube and then buy them when they release on iTunes.

Watch the episodes on Youtube, or find another alternative like watching on a website that already streamed the episode.

Youtube seems like the most reliable place to watch season 4. It looks like the episodes are uploaded the same day the specific episode is aired. Just make sure you watch them before they are taken off from copyright issues.

Well, honestly i watch them only on YouTube really, because i'm a closet brony, and thats really the only safe option for me.

 

You can always watch it on YouTube, then watch it on Netflix or whatever, or buy the episodes when they come out on iTunes.

 

Eventually if you do either of those then you'll still be supporting them, just because you don't now doesn't mean you can't later.
