Real Debrid is probably the easiest solution.

From there you can either go the stremio route or plex / jellyfin.

I recently started paying for debrid services (I use real debrid, but there are others) and couldn't be happier. Got an app called Stremio on my TV and after adding the credentials, everything just works - easy & fast like the streaming services.

It also allows you to download torrents much faster than torrenting them, especially if not many people seed them.

Oh, and if you ever need to download something from Rapidshare or whatever other websites like that it does that too.

Honestly, I should've started paying for it earlier.

My main suggestion is to search whatever you want with Yandex.com - unlike Google, DuckDuckGo, Yahoo, Brave, etc etc, Yandex doesn't delist piracy sites. So, "bookname pdf" will almost always return a good result. "some anime or movie name watch online" will also work.

Oh, and use uBlockOrigin. Ditch Chrome, use Firefox or anything that still makes uBlock works in full capacity.

Why pay someone else to run a service that you'd have been paying Netflix for.

That's how I feel about Usenet tbh. If you're going to pay, actually pay to support the shows you're watching. IMO.

Otherwise you build a server PC and set it up for the *arr suite, Radarr, Sonarr and the rest. It's the cost of your internet and your electricity after the upfront cost of your server.

Bonus: you have it when your internet is down, since they're downloaded to the hard drive.

I'm of a similar opinion but really it depends on the user's wants.

I personally don't care for an easy app like interface. My set up is literally just wireless keyboard and mouse in the living room and a pc hooked up to my TV. I just stream stuff from 'free' sites online. It's not much effort really. I'm not usually interested in checking out movies and shows the moment they release, I can wait a couple weeks or months for them to pop up in good quality on those sites.
