I respect that. I like entertainment though, so I just steal it with Real-Debrid and Stremio. And hey, look, all of the content is in one easy to use app with all of the same basic features and no ads... so it's actually a better experience.

    So, I'm looking at both services now: stremio is for finding a video stream link to something you want to watch, and real-debeid for watching it, or how does it work?
    I will definitely try watching stuff from rutracker by throwing torrent links into real-debrid, but you sound like your solution is more elegant

    Yup. You pay for Real-Debrid (it's cheap, a few bucks a month), download Stremio, and put your Real-Debrid key into plugin sites that install into the app. You can then login to Stremio on any device and you don't have to reinstall the plugins or anything like that. Don't share or watch from multiple IPs at once though. Real-Debrid will ban you.

    The best add-ons are Torrentio, Comet, and Mediafusion in my opinion. You'll want to install multiple so if one of them is down you have a backup.

    Yeah, torrent with a VPN will work too. Nice thing about a Debrid service is that most of the content is cached on their servers already though, so the movies and shows start streaming almost immediately and with very little buffering. I think it’s a superior experience worth a few bucks a month personally! Hell, a lot of these streaming companies have raised their prices by more than a few bucks recently or charge more to remove ads or play in 4K, and that’s just to watch their limited content!
