    I don’t torrent, it’s just not as nice as a streaming site like the frontend of solarmovies etc… (I like fmovies and s.to) Also at least in Germany uploading (aka seeding) is punished way more and opens you up to being discovered, where as only streaming, finding you is harder (they need access to the streaming site servers) plus its not punished as hard (and I think in practice not investigated)

      Up to you but how is it not as nice though? It’s usually faster so you don’t have to deal with buffering, plus you can keep the content forever and watch it without internet access and after the site gets taken down.

        Tbh I haven tried in like 5 years, but I think not much has changed. I don’t need to rewatch a series again. And the websites I use are just like conventional streaming services, remembering were you left of, what you already watched, what’s the next episode, Infos on the content I watch. It’s just a nice user experience all within my browser. (Also I don’t want to torrent without seeding ^^)
