LOL.

We pay for 4K, but we don't get more than 720p unless we use some proprietary shit hardware and agree to their super-invasive "privacy policy" - and they expect people to NOT set sail in the high seas? GTFO..

Just upgraded my truenas and plex to 8tb drives. 1600+ movies, 60+ TV series, 40,000 songs. I seed as much as I can, have uploaded over 5TB this month alone. Come get some.

    I haven't used Torrents in years, since subscribing to Netflix. But I'm fed up with needing to pay 5+ different subscriptions to get coverage across shows, so perhaps time to think about other options. What are some of the best torrent sites today,?

    I use OnTheSpot downloader to grab albums from spotify at 320kbps - https://github.com/casualsnek/onthespot

    Use Soulseek (nicotine+) to grab more obscure stuff. Can get everything on there, just sometimes slower and not as reliable as a torrent.

    I use these sites for movies, in order of convenience:

    https://ytssss.jamsbase.com/ (basically just YTS)

    https://www.magnetdl.com/ (search sucks, but if you get used to it, it has huge libraries of TV series)

    https://en.torrentgalaxy-official.site/

    https://rargb.to/

    https://1337x.to/home/

    https://psa.wf/ (PSA RIPS)

    I don't really download apps anymore, so malware really isn't an issue, but make sure you're using UBlockOrigin plugin and a VPN like TorGuard

    Could try the *arr software. Sonarr is tv, radarr is movies and lidarr is music. You can use jackett to act as an indexer and it will automatically grab the shows.

    Haha, do you ever feel like the last one to get the joke? I do sometimes.

    I've used them for a very long time, maybe a decade if they have been around that long, could be a bit less. I've seen them referred to as the *arr suite/software many times. I didn't know there was a joke to get until you pointed it out, I'm still facepalming.

    So you are not the last one.

    In my defence, I'm not a native speaker, but still..

    oh god, the difference between some of my old rips at 128 and 320 is damn near night and day. i though the song just sucked, but the quality was just shit. also found a track that got corrupt, but still played, but at 1/10th the speed, it was about 30 minutes long, but normally only 3 lol. just stretched the fuck out of it.
