    I understand your paranoia, but it’s impossible to answer a question if you don’t ask one.

    Linux distros can’t be pirated. As for TV shows and films, Usenet > Torrent > WWW

    Or so I’ve heard.

        I’ve never had an issue with finding movies or shows on Usenet, to the point that I’ve stopped looking elsewhere for them to save time when running a search. It’s likely just you have a shitty provider.

        If you’re seeing loads of takedowns, maybe it’s time to look for a new provider, because from what I’m seeing everything is still healthy AF.

          It was a new movies that came out 5 days before I started to download it, in the end I had to go to torrrent galaxy and it only had one or two releases for it, good quality though. It would probably download okay if I put it on Radarr before it was released, so it would pick it up before it got taken down. I NTD block to complement my DMCA ultimate provider lets see how it goes. Funny enough I decided to go check IRC which I haven’t opened for years and found the exact release that got taken down in Usenet.

          I used this (https://www.xdcc.eu/), I don’t think they care about IRC as much as Usenet and torrent.

              Thanks, I used to pay for netflix, but no one in the household watched it, they wanted stuff that it’s not on netflix or got removed. More streaming services popped up and it wasn’t worth paying for it anymore. Even with three indexers lifetime and drunkenslug and an ultimate provider and two blocks. I feel over the years it is cheaper than netflix, the lifetimes will pay for themselves and the blocks don’t expire. I only pay $2.5 per month for the ultimate. Netflix used to be good when it was the only streaming service and they weren’t cancelling every good show.
