Live torrents for some old movies and pretty hard to find. I thought about somehow extracting .m3u8 but that didn't worked out. Those sits are getting better at hiding real stream URL. Any way to easy do it or something?

Individually, yes, by correct selection of torrents you can "game" the system to your advantage. But you are wrong in the sense that the whole system in total still works like I say, if you're good at selecting the right torrent, then another person has to not be good at it, which then in turn will be the one without the good ratio.

    If all like the new movie than only a late newcomer will be "shafted".
    And that user only needs to play the patient game until another user with the same quality requirements and.or preferences comes along.

    It's just like the real life favor game.
    Give a favor, receive a favor.
    Fill a request, get download ratio you can use elsewhere on something you want.
