- nekusar 16d agoAnd Jellyfin for the server. And whatever leftover storage you have. And PIA or Proton for a port forwardable VPN. And https://github.com/halcyon-video/halcyon-video https://github.com/halcyon-video/halcyon-video for that real Blockbuster experience.
- ozgung 16d agoIn the old torrent days I was only watching classical masterpieces and top level world directors. In the streaming era I only watch mediocre straight-to-streaming movies, few popular TV series and too much reality TV that I'm not proud to watch.
- Tepix 16d agoYou need to rent a VPS (for $$$) to avoid litigation however. The those VPS have increased in price also.
- walrus01 16d agoRealistically you don't absolutely need a VPS to run your own tunnel through for bittorrent. You can do something like install a virtualbox machine that mounts your local samba file share across the LAN (to store downloaded stuff), and otherwise has a default route outbound to the world through a $5/mo VPN that exits to the Internet in like, Chișinău Moldova. Or similar. The main thing to worry about is using a bittorrent client that knows to 'stop' immediately if it's no longer on the VPN.
